Hello, This is about a slight differnce in the audio lessons. I just noticed a deviation on the review part of 6.4 in 6.5 lessons. It's on the statement "ashita no koto wo kakunin shitai dake desu kedo" which is being said by Kenny. In the review of 6.4 in 6.5, the word "shitai" was changed to "shitakatta". Is this still correct? It the meaning still the same? At least this was on the audio I've recently downloaded and I don't know if it was already corrected. yoroshiku onegaishimasu, hanslem

Hanslem san, Unfortunately, we may not be able to correct this mistake, however, we would like to explain the difference between the two words. The difference of SHITAI and SHITAKATTA is that... *Shitai *is present tense while *Shitakatta* is past tense. They both originate from the verb "to do" - *Suru *with the addition of *~tai* to express a desire. *Shitai *"I want to do" *Shitakatta* "I wanted to do" :D
