LANG 131 - Japanese I (3)

The goal of this course is for the student to gain oral fluency in basic Japanese. The student will engage in constant oral drills and practice. The sentence/word repetition drill, word substitution drill, and structure expansion drill are used to achieve fluency. The basic grammar and vocabulary are interwoven into patterned dialogs. By doing these drills, the student will be making active use of vocabulary words without translating. At the same time, the student will internalize the grammar of basic sentence structure.
