♪ Topic 2: Tell us what you’re into. Day 3.
Let’s start by listening to this week’s dialogue.
Vicky is into Japan, anime, and Japanese culture.
And Yugo is into comedy.
Today, we’ll find out more about Yugo’s thoughts.

Now, let’s take a closer look at what Yugo says. We’ll ask you some questions.
Okay. Here’s the first one: Q1). What’s Yugo into?
What’s Yugo into? Everyone, let’s think together. Moeno?
Yugo is into comedy. He likes to make people laugh.
Wow. Nice. Let’s listen to that part of the dialogue.

The question was: What’s Yugo into? And the answer is: He’s into comedy. If you said, “He’s into making people laugh,” that’s correct, too. Moeno, you said, “Yugo’s into comedy. He likes to make people laugh.” That’s perfect.
Everyone, let’s try saying the answer together. He’s into comedy. Very good!
All right. Let’s move on to the next question. First, listen to this.

So, here’s the question: Q2). What does Yugo hope to be someday?
What does Yugo hope to be someday? Moeno?
He hopes to be a world-famous comedian.
Oh. Very nice.
Very nice. The answer is: A world-famous comedian.” Really nice job, Moeno. If you said, “He hopes to be a world-famous comedian someday,” you did a great job.
Everyone, let’s practice the answer like this: He hopes to be a world-famous comedian someday. Very good!
All right. Moeno, everyone, try to put the two answers together to make a short summary of what Yugo says. You can start like this: Yugo’s into…. Go ahead.
Yugo’s into comedy. He likes to make people laugh. He hopes to be a world-famous comedian someday.
Mmm.
That was great.
Very good.
You could also say it like this:
Yugo’s into comedy. He hopes to be a world-famous comedian someday. Great job, listeners.

-What would you say?
Today, we’ll look at some ways to talk about what you’re into.
In the dialogue, Vicky says, “I’m a big fan of anime.”
Right. Listeners, I’m sure you know the word “fan,” like “a baseball fan” or “a J-pop fan.”
A fan is someone who loves and supports a person or team or thing or an activity.
Yeah. So, if you’re into something, you can say: I’m a fan of X.
And if you’re really into something, you can say: I’m a big fan of X.
Okay. Everyone, let’s practice using Vicky’s line. Ready? I’m a big fan of anime. Nice job.
Gary-sensei?
Yes?
Are you a fan of something?
Yes. I’m a big fan of my wife’s meat sauce pasta.
In the dialogue, Vicky also says…
“I’m really interested in Japanese culture.”
