This week you're going to study keigo! :D

And you have a good grasp of keigo just in the general sense of knowing how Japanese social groups work, I think. Like, the different levels of relation between people based on roles at work, experience, age, gender, etc.

Even native speakers, my co-worker Ayaka being a prime example, struggle with keigo. I imagine people are also going to give you a break because you're An American, too.

But still, this week you're going to study keigo. 8D
