Japanese New Year Traditions 🎍 Easy Japanese Listening Practice [JLPT N5-N4]【Multi - subtitle】

How do Japanese people spend the New Year? In this episode of Easy Nihongo Radio, I talk about traditional Japanese New Year customs (Oshogatsu).

This video is designed as Comprehensible Input, making it one of the most effective ways to acquire the language naturally. I speak in Native Japanese at a clear, easy-to-understand pace, so you can pick up Daily Japanese vocabulary used during the holiday season.

🌍 Subtitles (CC): Multilingual subtitles are available! I have provided multiple languages to help you understand better.
Turn on your native language to ensure full comprehension.

💡 How to use this video:
Listening: Just sit back and listen to get used to the natural flow.
Shadowing: I highly recommend using this for Shadowing practice! Repeat after me to improve your pronunciation, rhythm, and speaking confidence.
Background: Perfect for "immersion" while you are commuting or doing chores.
