Nihongo no Tane 100 百回 100 Times| Japanese Immersion podcast

100^th episode. Yumi started this podcast exactly two years ago and is now on her 100^th episode. Today, Yumi talks about several interesting Japanese phrases that include the word 百【ひゃく】 (hundred).

Also, to celebrate the 100^th episode, Makoto+ members not only get a full transcript, but we also created an Anki flashcard deck with dozens of key vocabulary words heard in today’s podcast. Not only that, each card has a sound file. Listen, learn, and repeat with Yumi!
