Hiatus Post      2020.05.20    Wednesday  休けい時間 きゅうけい じかん 

令和2520   水曜日


The Japanese you have been learning is standard Japanese, Tokyo-dialect Japanese, also known as  標準語(ひょうじゅんご)which is taught in Japanese schools as 国語(こくご)the national language.

There are other dialects, however, which differ depending on the part of the country you are in.  I recently saw a link to the dialect of Akita Prefecture, 秋田弁(あきた べん).  If the Japanese spoken by our guests from 能代松陽 高校Noshiro Shouyou High School this January occasionally sounded a little different to your ears, you may have been noticing some of the differences explained in this link.





Japanese 3-4

You will be doing the class assignments created by Yoko Schmadeke Sensei from now on.  Send them /post them to me, however, as I will be grading them in Skyward.



Japanese 5-6

How are you doing on the Chapter 11 の漢字?  Are you able to recognize and read them consistently?  Are you able to write them? You can practice reading them below.
