Blog Assignment #12

Learning Japanese this semester has definitely been more challenging compared to Elementary 1. For example, understanding the difference between な and い adjectives but also the introduction of いますand あります. Even though it was quite tough at times, I still really enjoyed going to class and improving my Japanese. Can't wait to learn more next semester!!👍

Japan-related Video

While searching, I found and watched a YouTube video of a woman going to Kamakura, Japan. Throughout the video, the woman communicates what she was seeing and doing all in Japanese. This video made me realize how much more I need to learn and practice regarding Japanese, but also the progress I have made so far:) I was able to understand certain words and also read what was shown on the screen. I enjoyed learning about Kamakura and the wonderful place it seems to be. Hope I can visit one day!

Japan-related video #2

After watching a couple videos from the YouTube channel,  Akane-JapaneseClass , I decided to watch their video on ordering coffee in Japanese.                                                     Conversation for ordering coffee in Japanese   Watching their videos has given me the chance to learn real life conversations and situations in Japanese. They give you a perspective of going to a place where English isn't used, and what is looks and sounds like.  Throughout the video you not only see them ordering coffee and food in Japanese but also the polite and proper etiquette. I definitely plan to continue watching and learning from these videos of life in Japan.

Listening Material in Japanese

  This week I watched a vlog by the YouTube channel, Akane-Japanese Class , where the Japanese youtuber designs her videos to help the viewer better understand the train system in Japan, specifically the Japanese used at the train station and shops as well. She provided various examples and used repetition to help the viewer. I really liked this video because it allowed me to see real life scenarios using Japanese that can help me improve my own language skills. I was also able to recognize and understand a lot more words in this video compared to videos I had watched in the past. I look forward to watching more!😀
