お願い

o negai

Request; favor

💬 [お願い] literally means a request or favor, but in set phrases like [お願いします] it works more like "please" or "I'm asking for your help." You'll also hear it after a noun to mean "that one, please," like [コーヒーお願いします].

お願いします

o negai shi masu

Please

🇯🇵 This is the standard polite [please] for shops, counters, and service situations. In Japan, saying [お願いします] after what you want sounds more natural than a direct command or a bare [please].

What Learners Are Saying

Teaching in Osaka and I wanted to connect with my students beyond the classroom. The everyday conversation scenarios made my Japanese feel natural, not textbook-y.

Mia S., 25, English Teacher

Moved to Tokyo and the polite vs. casual speech levels were killing me. This app breaks it all down with real scenarios. My coworkers noticed the difference in weeks.

Kevin Z., 31, Game Developer

I tried five different apps before this one. The roleplay conversations are what finally made things click. I actually remember what I learn now.
