ひとりごとこそ上達(じょうたつ)への近道(ちかみち)！

"Talking to yourself" means speaking out loud when there's no one else around.
While cooking, while cleaning, in the bathroom, while riding your bike…
There are actually lots of opportunities to talk to yourself.

Try putting your self-talk into Japanese.

How about pretending to be a radio DJ?

For example, imagine you’re a radio DJ,
and talk to your listeners in Japanese:
“Hello everyone! This is Macchan! The weather’s getting cooler, isn’t it?”
“My song recommendation today is 〇〇.”
“There’s going to be a 〇〇 concert in Tokyo soon!”
Put some emotion into it and try speaking in Japanese.
It doesn’t have to sound natural.

Just speak your thoughts one after another in Japanese — that’s all you need to do.

Talking to yourself while driving or riding your bike

Macchan is studying English.
So I try to speak my self-talk in English.
While driving, while biking — instead of singing,
I talk to myself in English.

Pick a topic and just start talking.
It’s totally fine to make mistakes.

Talk about things that matter to you —
what’s important to you in parenting,
what you’re finding difficult — speak without embarrassment.

Talk about things that are relevant to you

The key point here is: talk about things that are connected to your own life.
Things happening around you, challenges you’re facing,
things that made you happy —
speak from your own perspective.

How you feel and how you express it — that’s where your personality shines through.

Language is just a tool

You don’t have to speak perfect Japanese — it’s okay to make mistakes.
What matters more than perfect grammar is this:
the stories and thoughts you choose to talk about in Japanese,
and what you felt or thought during those moments.

That personal expression — your voice — is much more important than flawless Japanese.

So, how about starting today?
Try talking to yourself — and make it part of your language learning!
