This time let's learn ら行(ra gyou)
ら行 means these 5 words
ら り る れ ろ
ら行 always is written with alphabet R and vowels: a i u e o.
But I don't think they are not quite pronounced like that.
It's really difficult to explain They sound like between L and R
with vowels: a i u e o. Books write ら り る れ ろ as ra ri ru re ro,
but I say they are closer to la li lu le lo. But they are not exactly
the right sounds.

You will learn 2 new words with ら り る れ ろ
I'm sorry I don't come up with vocabulary with ら り る れ ろ.
