This sequential course will continue to build skills necessary to the basic communicative Japanese. The goal of the course is to further develop all four language skills: listening (to understand colloquial conversations), speaking (to express oneself in a variety of daily situations), reading (to skim and scan Japanese texts), and writing (to express descriptions and some functional writing skills, such as letter writing). Students will develop these skills through further learning of basic grammatical structures and appropriate sociolinguistic understanding of the Japanese culture. Prerequisite: JAPN 111 or permission of instructor.
