How are you?

Moshi moshi everybody!

Two days ago we learned how to say Hello. Last night we learned goodbye. Now that we have a beginning and an end let's get learn something to put in the middle of that conversation.

How are you?

Ogenki desuka means how are you.
Pronounced something like gank key des ko.

Now lets see how we can respond to that if someone asks us.

Watashi wa genki desu. Arigato! is how you could say I'm fine. Thanks!
Pronounced like Wa Ta shee wa Gank Key Des Ari Ga Toe

Genki desu would be how you reply I'm doing good.
Pronounced something akin to Gan Key Des

Maa-maa desu is how you would reply if you are feeling so so.
Pronounced something like Ma Ma Des

Okay so over the first 3 days we have learned how to say

Hey!
How are you?
I'm Fine. (good / so-so)
Goodbye

Moshi moshi!
Ogenki desuka?
Watashi wa genki desu. Arigato!
Sayonara.

Way to go!
We have now learned how to have a very tiny conversation with someone in Japanese!


Arigato!
Mata ashito!
