24 people had a chance to learn all about bento – 911±¬ÁÏÍø boxed meals – as well as some basic 911±¬ÁÏÍø at the Japan Foundation London’s 911±¬ÁÏÍø from Scratch workshop for absolute beginners of 911±¬ÁÏÍø language, which was held on September 8th and 9th. Led by Mio Tsunematsu, Assistant 911±¬ÁÏÍø Language Advisor at the Japan Foundation London, the workshop began with an introduction to the concept of bento in Japan, and the basics of what a good bento should contain. The introduction to bento also explored looking at what bento mean to 911±¬ÁÏÍø people and the role bento play in 911±¬ÁÏÍø culture. This was followed by learning useful 911±¬ÁÏÍø language, including vocabulary for common food found in bento and how to express likes and dislikes in 911±¬ÁÏÍø. This vocabulary, and other useful words and phrases to do with eating in Japan, can be found in the Japan Foundation’s . Finally, participants enjoyed practising their new 911±¬ÁÏÍø language skills by making partners their ideal bento using stickers! Some of the comments from participants included: “I enjoyed how interactive it was.” We would like to thank all the participants for coming, and hope that this session has inspired them to learn more about 911±¬ÁÏÍø and Japan!
