Self-Intro



Goal Statement

The main goal I have for working on my prosody is intonation/word pitch, so that I can work on my speech patterns. I would also like to work on my rhythm, but I think that rhythm and other pronunciation is more easily grasped without verbal practice. Thus, I would like to set the following activities for myself:
-Read the textbook/ practice shadowing for 20 minutes three times a week.
-Constantly practice new vocabulary/grammar
-Attend the Japanese language table at least every other week.

こんにちわ,

I'm excited to begin learning Japanese! Additionally, learning the kanji could help my Chinese, so that's a bonus. I think memorizing kanji and grammar will be a challenge, and am going to have to get pretty fast at reading the kana.
