About this Unit
In Spring 2020, this unit replaced by unit 102804 - Japanese 204: Speaking and Listening. This unit is undertaken concurrently with, or after, Japanese 203. It is designed to further develop and expand speaking and listening skills on the basis of grammatical structure introduced in Japanese 203 and increase the range of communicative transactions developed in Japanese 202 so that more sophisticated exchanges are possible when stating a plan or intention, making a suggestion, offering advice, indicating the degree of certainty, describing a change in state, indicating causes, using the passive and the imperative, etc. This unit will also present further aspects of contemporary Japanese culture and society. The unit is not suitable for background speakers (i.e., who have completed formal secondary education where Japanese is used as an official language and also the language of instruction at the School).
Note: Students enrolling in this unit as part of a major or sub major in Japanese are encouraged to enrol in Japanese 203 at the same time.
