#54 Short story / おもちゃの兵隊《The Toy Soldier》/ storytelling // N4/ Japanese listening

Today’s episode is “おもちゃの兵隊 (omocha no heetai)《The Toy Soldier》. This work was inspired by Andersen's fairy tale 'The Steadfast Tin Soldier.' It's a somewhat sad tale, but I believe it prompts contemplation about love. As Valentine's Day approaches, I've created this video. This episode is at the JLPT-N4 level. I've also prepared a quiz based on this episode. After listening, please take the quiz! Please use this audio for listening and shadowing practices. ☆Words ／ Conjugation of verbs Starting from now, I’m publishing this information on my website. The content is available on the script page of this video. ☆Script for this episode
