We all know how hot and humid Japan can be in the summer. A natural thing to ask about is the temperature, or kion. A: What's the temperature outside? A: 外の気温は何度ですか？ B: It's 35 degrees! B: 35度ですよ！ #aeonjapan #mondaymondai #summer pic.twitter.com/SqfTR2Pg13

Happy July, everybody! Summer festivals are very common in Japan, and there's nothing as fun as going to see fireworks, or hanabi. Example: A: Are you wearing a yukata to the fireworks festival? A: 花火大会に浴衣を着ますか？ B: Of course! B: もちろん！ #aeonjapan #mondaymondai pic.twitter.com/AScpsGeLlR
