Today, I’m going to share an everyday conversational phrase. Let’s learn it quickly and start using it right away!

 

 

——-Today’s Phrase——-

　                ちゃったの？
Did you end up…?

This phrase is often used to express regret or disappointment when someone has done something that leads to a less than ideal outcome. It’s like casually saying, “Oh no, you did that!? That’s too bad, it would have been better if you hadn’t.”

 

Let’s practice:

1. 今日もちこくした
→今日もちこくしちゃったの？
Did you end up being late again today? That’s too bad.

 

2. 宿題を忘れた
→宿題を忘れちゃったの？
Did you end up forgetting your homework? That’s too bad.

 

3. 一人でケーキを全部食べた
→一人でケーキを全部食べちゃったの？
Did you end up eating the entire cake by yourself? That’s too bad.

 

 

In my speaking course, you can master authentic spoken Japanese, like the ones above! The course uses everyday Japanese and will help you become comfortable chatting in situations where various topics might arise.

In the speaking course, if you submit your homework, you’ll learn the correct pronunciation and intonation. Daily feedback from your teacher will also help you stay committed to the course.

Improve Your Japanese Speaking Skills in 90 days

Are you learning Japanese and finding it challenging to boost your speaking skills? Just like my JLPT courses, this speaking course is designed with a “daily self-training + teacher support” model. It allows you to practice speaking at your own pace, even when you don’t have time for a formal session with a teacher. The key to rapidly improving your speaking skills is consistency – practicing a little each day is far more effective than cramming a lot into sporadic sessions.
