Joke

I made my first joke in Japanese today!

I was driving my Japanese teacher to the station after class, and on the way we passed an incident with a lot of fire engines and ambulances outside a house with smoke pouring out of it. Let’s call it a ‘fire’.

My teacher said he had seen a lot of fires today, to which I replied, ‘that’s because it’s Tuesday!’.

 

Guffaw!

 

日本語で:

今日は日本語で私の最初の冗談を作ったよ!

私の日本語の先生は:「私は今日は火災の多くを見ている」を言った。

私:「はい、火曜日ですから!!」

(笑) ^_^

    I told a class of 5th graders my joke today (about 10 years old) and got a sympathy laugh from from most of them. Never again.

    You nailed it. ‘Tuesday’ in Japanese is 火曜日 (Kayoubi).
    火 is the character for fire.  Booyah!
