I made a song about cats with AI.
It has both Japanese and English lyric so it helps you to learn Japanese!

ねこについての歌をAIで作りました。
ねこは「にゃんこ」と呼ばれることもあります。

（verse1）
しっぽは tail　ふりふり dance
うれしいときに　ゆれるよ chance
ひげは whiskers　ピンとのばして
まわりの空気を　check するよ！

（chorus）
あたまは head　くびは neck
みみは ears　ぴょこっと up
めは eyes　きらきら shine
にゃんこのからだ　おぼえよう！

（verse2）
ては paws　やわらかく
そーっとあるいて　音がしない
つめは claws　ときどき sharp
でもリラックスで　ひっこめる〜

（chorus）
鼻は nose　くちは mouth
こえは voice　にゃーって言う
からだは body　ふわふわ　fur
にゃんこで覚える　にほんご！

日本語聞いてみよう！

【ねこ（にゃんこ）の歌】a song about cats

☆Words☆
七五三（しちごさん）：Shichi-go-san is an annual Japanese festival to celebrate the growth of children. It takes place on or around November 15. The festival is for boys aged three and five, and girls aged three and seven. That’s why it is called shichi-go-san (seven-five-three).
お祝（いわ）い：celebration
成長（せいちょう）：growth
中旬（ちゅうじゅん）：middle of a month
江戸時代（えどじだい）：Edo period (1603-1868 CE)
剃（そ）る：shave
袴（はかま）：man's formal divided skirt
帯（おび）：belt (e.g. of a kimono)
千歳飴（ちとせあめ）：longevity candy, long red-and-white stick candy
On shichi-go-san, children eat long red-and-white stick candy, called chitose ame. Chitose means “one thousand years.” It symbolizes health and longevity.

Simple Japanese Listening with Meg（めぐ）Smile

#39 Japanese culture / 七五三の歴史《The history of Shichi-go-san》 // N3 Level /Japanese listening

Remember, if you want to score a band 7 in your IELTS speaking test, it’s important to use some less common idiomatic expressions.

The best place to slip these idioms into your speech is in part 2, because you have 1 minute to prepare. If you are a clever clogs, you will be able to sneak your idioms into your speech naturally. 

When preparing for your exam it’s best to always try to go the extra mile, because there is a lot to learn.

Firstly, you have to learn how to use linking phrases. To be honest, I have to admit these are sometimes tricky to remember. On the other hand, once you have learned them, they can be difficult to forget.

Secondly, you have to learn how to paraphrase, and use synonyms. It’s good to spend time in a thesaurus and arm yourself with lots of alternative words. If you do this you will gain ground. 

Thirdly, in order to avoid feeling lost at sea when you take your exam, make sure you have one or two idioms up your sleeve. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks, but you can teach an English student a new idiom. 

Now take the quiz that goes with this podcast, and book your IELTS mock speaking test with me.
