Lesson 16

1) Proposing to do something for someone

～ましょうか／～ mashouka

When we started the lesson, the blinds of windows in the classroom was all opened and it was glaring. So I proposed to students as ;

せんせい：ブラインドを しめましょうか。 Shall I close the blinds?

After all blinds were closed the room became dark and we could hardly see each other.(oops, it’s exaggerated a bit. . . )せんせい： でんきを つけましょうか。 Shall I turn the lights on?

Here’s the introduction of the lesson

Then the room became fairly bright, but we found the room was too hot.

せんせい： エアコンを つけましょうか。 Shall I turn the AC on?
