Conference, meeting in Japanese 🇯🇵

かいぎ info.

Tips to Remember the Japanese Word:
– Break it down: かい (kai) + ぎ (gi). You might remember "kai" as in the English word "kai" like a name, and "gi" like "gi" from "giant" to make it more vivid.
– Visualize: Imagine attending a giant (ぎ) meeting (かい) to help the connection stick.

Explanations:
– かいぎ (kaigi) is used for formal gatherings, like business meetings, seminars, and conferences.
– It suggests an organized event where specific topics are discussed.

Other Words that Mean the Same Thing:

– 集会 (しゅうかい, shuukai) – Gathering, meeting.
