문화적 배경
In Japanese schools, the 'preview-review' (yoshuu-fukushuu) cycle is considered the ultimate study method. It is not just about learning; it is a cultural value emphasizing diligence and respect for the educational process. Many 'Juku' (cram schools) focus almost entirely on getting students ahead through constant `予習`.
The 'Te-oku' trick
Say `予習しておく` (yoshuu shite oku) to sound like a pro. It implies you're doing it now to make your future self's life easier!
Don't mix with Junbi
If you are packing a suitcase, that is `準備` (junbi). `予習` is strictly for learning or mental preparation.

What It Means
予習をする is all about looking ahead. It means studying material before your teacher or boss explains it. It is the opposite of reviewing what you already learned. Think of it as a 'sneak peek' with a purpose. You are building a foundation before the house is built.
How To Use It
You use this phrase like any other する verb. Just put the topic you are prepping before the phrase. Use the particle を to connect them. For example: 数学の予習をする means 'I will preview my math.' It is very common in school and business settings. You can also use it for hobbies or even dates.
When To Use It
Use it when you are reading a textbook chapter tonight. Use it before a big meeting at the office. It is perfect for telling a friend why you are busy. 'I need to do 予習 for my Japanese class!' It shows you are a diligent and organized person. It is a very positive thing to say.
When NOT To Use It
Do not use it for general preparation like packing bags. That is 準備 (junbi). Do not use it for looking back at old notes. That is 復習 (fukushuu). If you are just 'checking' something quickly, use 確認 (kakunin). 予習 implies a deeper level of learning or study. Do not use it for physical training exercises either.
Cultural Background
Japan loves the cycle of 予習 (preview) and 復習 (review). Students are taught this loop from a very young age. It is considered the 'secret sauce' for academic success. Doing 予習 shows respect for your teacher's time. It means you value the lesson enough to prepare. It is a sign of a 'majime' (serious/diligent) person.
Common Variations
You will often hear 予習しておく. This means 'to do the preview in advance.' Adding しておく makes it sound more like a helpful preparation. Students often shorten it to just 予習 in casual talk. 'Did you do the 予習?' is a classic hallway question. Pair it with 復習 to talk about your whole study routine.
사용 참고사항
This phrase is neutral and safe for all situations. In very formal business contexts, you might use '下調べ' (shitashirabe) for research, but '予習' is perfectly fine for internal prep.
The 'Te-oku' trick
Say `予習しておく` (yoshuu shite oku) to sound like a pro. It implies you're doing it now to make your future self's life easier!
Don't mix with Junbi
If you are packing a suitcase, that is `準備` (junbi). `予習` is strictly for learning or mental preparation.
The Diligence Badge
In Japan, admitting you did `予習` is a subtle way to show you are a hard worker without bragging.

자주 묻는 질문
10 질문予習 (yoshuu) is previewing before a lesson, while 復習 (fukushuu) is reviewing after a lesson. They are the two pillars of Japanese studying.
Yes! It is very common to say 予習をする when you are reading through the agenda or documents before a meeting starts.
Absolutely. Using 予習をしてきました (I have done the preview) shows your boss that you are proactive and prepared.
Yes, in casual speech, you can drop the を. For example, 予習するね (I'll prep, okay?).
No, while it starts in school, adults use it for work, language classes, or even learning a new skill like coding.
For a trip, use 旅行の準備をする (ryokou no junbi o suru). 予習 would only apply if you are studying the history of the place.
Not really a slang version, but students might just say 予習った (yoshu-tta) as a joke, though it is not grammatically standard.
Even just glancing at the next page of a textbook counts as 予習. It is the intent that matters.
Usually, no. For sports, you would use イメージトレーニング (image training) or 作戦を立てる (making a strategy).
The direct opposite is 復習 (fukushuu), which means to review what has already been taught.
