GENKI 1: Lesson 4 | Part ONE | Easy JAPANESE Polite PAST TENSE

Genki 1 Lesson 4 introduces you to the Japanese past tense. It gives VERY little detail and refers you back to lesson 3 (pages 88 to 89).
As I said in Lesson 3 Part 1, pages 88 to 89 are WORTHLESS, so unless you watched the stream on the present tense ( THIS part of the book will also be useless for you.
With that in mind, today I will cover the rules for polite conjugation ONE MORE TIME, and how they apply to the polite Japanese past tense, and past negative tense.
I will also cover the past tense of desu (です) and jyanai (じゃない).

We will also start having you practice what we learn live using some prepared questions!
