- Lucas: Welcome back to Learn Japanese with Fexingo. I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna! Hey Lucas, I've been learning body parts from the last episode. Eye, ear, nose, mouth — got those down. Lucas: Great! Today let's add some more: arm, hand, and finger. Ready? Luna: Absolutely. Let's start with arm. How do you say arm? Lucas: It's 腕. Luna: 腕. Lucas: Good. 腕. Now, hand is 手. Luna: 手. That's short. Lucas: Yes, very common. And finger is 指. Luna: 指. Lucas: Perfect. Let's put them in a phrase. 'My arm' is 私の腕. Luna: 私の腕. Lucas: And 'your hand' is あなたの手. Luna: あなたの手. Lucas: Great. Let's do a quick practice. I'll say English, you say Japanese. Arm. Luna: 腕. Lucas: Hand. Luna: 手. Lucas: Finger. Luna: 指. Lucas: Excellent! Now let's imagine you're at the doctor and you hurt your arm. You can say 腕が痛い. Luna: 腕が痛い. That means 'my arm hurts'. Lucas: Exactly. 腕が痛い. Or if it's your hand, 手が痛い. Luna: 手が痛い. And finger: 指が痛い.
