I introduce ''九月'' on this time.

12 months constitute one year.
We express them with numbers from 1 to 12.
It is very easy.

九月 ( September ).
Morning and evening cool down in Japan.

Cool wind carries an autumn fragrance.


I introduce ''十月'' on the next time.


Thank you.
See you next time.

All of us are piece of peace.
