PE Evaluation!

Overall, I'm actually quite happy with my progress in the Japanese language. Before taking this course, I always thought that Japanese would be incredibly difficult to learn, and I would never be able to memorize and be comfortable with using it. Half of that is still true, but taking JPN 101 has really helped me! It still is very difficult and there's a lot to pay attention to, but it's fun and manageable.

PE Self-Evaluation

I think I've accomplished nearly all of my goals! I can say with confidence that I know the hiragana and katakana alphabet completely, and the speed at which I speak Japanese is much faster. Although I still not have completely mastered pitch, I am trying to get better at it! I also think that listening to clips of actual Japanese content has become easier for me and I can understand as well as read it much better. I am very satisfied with how this semester has gone, and I'm excited for JPN 102!

ふゆ休み!

私のふゆ休みはとてもよくて、たのしがったです。しゅくだいがないので、たくさんゆっくりしました。うちにかえて、かぞくとあいました。かぞくとおいしいたべものをたべました!そして、私のいぬとあそびました。たのしかったです。でもいぬとねこと、ねこの方が好きです。ねこがほしいです、でも私のはははねこがきらいなので、ねこがありません。ざんねんですね。一月みっかにプリンストンにかえて、たくさんべんきょしました。
