  • Summary

  • We're back! In this episode, Devin and I plunge into the quirky and fascinating world of Japanese onomatopoeia! Ever wonder why there are so many repeating words in Japanese? Or why a conversation sometimes sounds like a cartoon? We share our own struggles and funny experiences learning words like 'waku waku' (excited) and 'doki doki' (nervous heartbeats), plus how these expressions can completely change the way you understand everyday language. If you've ever been confused by the 'pika pika' or the 'goro goro' or just want to improve your Japanese skills in a fun way, this episode is for you! Got your own Japan stories? Drop them in the comments—I'd love to hear them! Catch you in the next one! 🤙
