EP68 Drive vs ドライブ | What’s the Difference?

Practice real Japanese with Kimi! 🇯🇵

Today’s episode is a short one!

It’s been a busy weekend with my kids, so I didn’t have time to make a longer episode.

But I still wanted to share a quick Japanese tip with you!

Today, we’re talking about the difference between “drive” and the Japanese word “doraibu.”

Even though doraibu comes from the English word drive, Japanese people use it a little differently.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

🚗 unten suru = to drive a car

🚗 doraibu ni iku = to go for a drive for fun

It’s a small difference, but it’s a very natural expression that Japanese people use all the time.

I hope this quick tip helps you sound more natural in Japanese!

If you’d like to practice real Japanese conversation with me, I also teach private Japanese lessons on italki.

You’re always welcome!
