Hello Everyone, New to the website so not sure how it works but here I go... I am an undergraduate student on Chinese and Japanese Studies from the UK. Currently spending my second year in Tokyo as study abroad in Japan and going to Beijing later this year for another year. Native level speaker at both English and Brazilian Portuguese and looking for opportunities to practice my conversation skills in Japanese and Mandarin Chinese. I am far from being fluent on the languages I am studying but hope to find patient friends who I can help with my languages and who would be happy to help me with Japanese and or Chinese. Please say hello (or whatever one does on iTalki... lol) XD 日本人と中国人を募集中です。中国語ができる日本人や日本語ができる中国人を見つけたら、嬉しいです。よろしくお願いします。 我找中国人和日本人。要是我找到可以说日语的中国人或者可以说汉语的日本人,我就高兴。

    Hello Anders, There are a few useful expressions used in Japanese to begin a conclusion paragraph depending on what you want to say after such as 結局;以上のように;結論として;この体験を通して or even 最後に. The end will also depend on what the content of your conclusion is. For example if you are stating your opinion you'd want to end with ~ほうがいい・~べきだ・~(だ)と思う。 The Japanese are also big on rhetorical questions to end speeches or essays. As if to leave an idea hanging as food for thought. Something like "Does this not prove the unfairness of gender wage gap?" or "Can it not be said that this is the result of the educational differences between the generations?" When doing that you basically add the question to the very end of your conclusion paragraph, after you have already closed all your ideas. It can be done by using ~のではないだろうか。・~と言えるのではないだろうか for example. I am only a student in Japan myself but if you have any more specific questions let me know, I might be able to help. Good Luck there!
