Sometimes you do things that make other people feel sad.

When we say we are sorry, it can help the person we hurt feel better.

Today we are going to learn some different ways people say “I’m sorry” in places around the world. Kazumi lives in Japan.

In Japanese, “I’m sorry” is gomen’nasai. Can you say “gomen’nasai”?

“Gomen’nasai.” Kazumi knocked a picture off the wall and it broke.

What did she say to her mother to tell her she was sorry? “Gomen’nasai.”

Now we're going to say I'm sorry in French.

Delphine is from Quebec in Canada. She speaks French. When she says, “I’m sorry,” she says, “Je suis désolé.”

Can you say “Je suis désolé“? Delphine’s big sister Martin did not get a part in the school play. Martin was sad.

Of course, this wasn't Delphine's fault,

but she still wanted to say something nice to let Martin know that she was sorry that Martin didn’t get a part in the play, so she said,

can you remember? “Je suis désolé.”

Kabyle lives in Kenya. He speaks Swahili. In Swahili, they say “Samahani” to say “I’m sorry.” Can you say “Samahani”? Samahani.

Kabyle was playing soccer and tripped his friend Saifu. Saifu was not happy about that. What could Kabyle say to apologize?

Do you remember? “Samahani.” “Samahani” means I’m sorry in Swahili.

Saying you are sorry can be hard.

But when we follow Jesus Christ and ask for forgiveness when we have done something wrong

or when others around us are feeling bad, saying I'm sorry can help us feel peace.
