んばんは、 みなみなさん。
Today, I'd like to talk a little bit about prosody.
Japanese is very different from the other languages I know so far, so naturally I have some problems. In particular, I think that my recognition and reproduction of pitch patterns in Japanese words and phrases is far from perfect and needs significant improvement. I also need to work on sentence intonations.
To this end, I will do the following activities:
1) Listen to the recordings from the textbook and watch anime and try to recognize the pitch patterns in some of the phrases that I hear.
2) Visit Shibata-sensee's office hours so that we may practice pitch and intonation.
3) Go to Japanese language table every week to improve my listening abilities.
