This year there are many improvements I can make to my speech that will allow me to more correctly and fluently speak Japanese.
Here are my goals, broad and simple to understand:
1. Just as before, increase speaking speed. This will likely be a goal of mine of a while.
2. Memorize the tones of words!
Steps to complete my goals:
1. Go to 日本語テーブル at least every other time it is available.
2. Look up word intonations if I do not know them. With new vocab I will try to memorize the tones and revisit the tone diagram as many times as it takes to memorize them.
3. Watch an episode of anime in Japanese once a week.
Let's have a great semester everyone! がんばって!
