反省Class Reflection for the Week of 9月26日11年

英語で

一  What did you learn in this week in Japanese class?

Verb stem + なさい is how you command someone to do something.

"A ~ば B"  is how you say, "if A then B". For B to happen A must also happen. Where as "A~たらB is just if A happens then B can/might happen."

A~のようなB and A~のようにB where ~のよう turns a noun into a comparison to B. A like B happens. な is for ideas of appearance and に is for ideas of characteristic or feeling.

A~のにB connects two ideas that are facts even though they contradict each other. Compared to ~けど which is just used as the English counterpart "but" and A and B DO NOT need to be purely factual statements.

二  Most fun things you did in this week in Japanese class?

Laugh, because apparently rubber bands can stick to ceilings

クククククククク

三  What is your great success in this week in Japanese class?

Understanding that ~のような／~のように were used for appearance／feeling before it was explained and before I read about it.

四  What is your greatest challenge in this week in Japanese class?

I'm beginning to worry about basic vocabulary we never really review it, it is up to us to make sure we know it. I understand these are college courses but it is still difficult since it is a second language and not too many of us could start in middle school, and some didn't have the option even in High School.

五  What do you want do in order to overcome #4?

I usually try to give myself situations to learn vocab or use them in homework, but because of the kanji containing new vocabulary all the time as well it makes it more difficult for me to remember. So I still try, but thats all I can do.

Different Learning Strategies

I don't know of very many learning strategies, I feel my own need some heavy work. What I view as the best way to learn is go to Japan be forced to learn Japanese write Japanese all the time and be fluent sooner than later, but that can cost a LOT of money that not too many people can afford. The way I see most people learning is being into some sort of manga or anime or video games and picking up many words here and there, and then diving into the language once they're ready, the other ones that dive too early are Otaku that don't have the actual drive to learn and just want it because of the guys/girls or some other shallow excuses.

I see a lot of people studying through class, trying to type in Japanese and trying to meet Japanese people. Everyone has their own way that works for them....but its still probably best to be able to just go to Japan.

一  What did you learn in this week in Japanese class?

That when you take and adjective, if a な adj. drop な then add に, and if an い adj. then change い to く, then following - add する and treat the entire adj. as if it were a verb. Adj+する means that you make something like that adjective.
