## Resource

This month I wrote about one of the very first topics I ever covered on the blog: How do you convey reported information in Japanese? And how does it differ from conveying information in English? ということです is a super convenient way to do so, as long as you do the work of setting up clear context. Take a look on the blog or on the newsletter , which is now at newsletter.howtojapanese.com. Feel free to reach out with any questions or 悩み事 to howtojapanese@gmail.com . You can also follow How to Japanese on the newsletter , Bluesky , Instagram , TikTok , and Facebook .
