VIDEO| Speakin’ Japanese: Telephone talk
What would you say when you wrap up a telephone call or in-person conversation with your friend?
Be sure to say "Okiwo Tsukete,” which means "take care of yourself" before you hang up your phone or leave your friends. This is a nice, heart-warming expression that shows your considerations to your friend's health and safety.
Today's Japanese phrase is:
OKIWO TSUKETE = Take care of yourself
Use this expression anytime you’re ending a converstation.
Stay safe and OKIWO TSUKETE!
