Apprendre le lexique japonais fait partie de l’apprentissage du judo.
Ne panique pas! Ce n’est pas aussi difficile que ça.
Bientôt, tu utilisera des mots japonais tout en parlant avec ton Sensei (Maître) et d’autres Judokas (pratiquants de judo).
À la fin de ce livre, tu connaîtras les parties du corps, l’équipement, les vêtements, et aussi de nombreux concepts de judo en japonais.

Tu portes un judogi quand tu fais du judo et n’oublie pas de nouer ton obi.
Lorsque tu iras au dojo tu verras ton sensei et de nombreux judokas sur le tatami.
Ecoute ton sensei, qui te dira hajime et matte et tu apprendras l’ukemi.
