This document provides an overview of a beginner's Japanese lesson being taught by instructor Kana Shimohigoshi. The aims of the course are to teach basic conversation skills, how to read and write the hiragana and katakana scripts, introduce aspects of Japanese culture, and help students find language exchange partners. It then asks students to share some background information. The document goes on to explain the three main Japanese scripts - kanji, hiragana, and katakana, giving some key details about each one. It also includes short excerpts in Japanese from the novel Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami to demonstrate the scripts.
Explanation of how to form the masu forms of Japanese verbs for verb conjugations. Includes the non-past affirmative (masu) and negative (masen). This corresponds to Ch 3 Grammar 1 of the Genki I textbook. Assumes knowledge of Hiragana; includes no Romaji.
Japanese grammar has only two tenses: past and non-past. Verbs are conjugated in a regular, predictable way between these two forms. Sentence structure can be flexible as long as particles are used correctly. Tense is determined by context and time expressions, as the non-past tense can refer to future or habitual actions.
The document discusses the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) and provides information about the N5 level, which is the easiest. It states that the N5 tests basic understanding of everyday conversations in Japanese using hiragana, katakana, and around 100 kanji. It also tests reading comprehension of short passages and the ability to understand basic listening dialogs involving common home and school situations. Taking the N5 can help identify weaknesses and show interest in the language.

This document contains lyrics and instructions for songs, rhymes, chants and games that can be used to teach language in a fun and engaging way for children. It discusses how music, movement and play are natural ways for children to learn and acquire language. Songs, rhymes and chants provide repetition, teach stress and intonation patterns, and make language memorable. They also build community and allow children to express themselves. The document emphasizes finding joy in language learning through interactive activities rather than making it feel like work.
In English, when two nouns go together in a specified order they are called binomials. If three go together they are call trinomials. Examples of this might be ‘aches and pains’, ‘last but not least’ and ‘cool, calm and collected’.
As you can see the nouns are often linked by conjunction such as ‘and’, ‘or’ and ‘but’. It is important that the order of the nouns is correct and that synonyms are not used for the nouns. This is because these words together create meaningful phrases which are spoken and written throughout English usage.
Learning binomials can be a fun way of expanding your English vocabulary. The combinations often create meaning that vary distinctly from the common usage of the nouns in the phrase. These are idioms and expressions and they are the hardest part of English for new learners to understand.

Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

5. Memory hooks
This booklet contains all the text on the CD, both
English and the written sounds of the Japanese words.
The original Japanese writing and comments to assist
your memorisation and understanding, can be found
under 'Extras' on the earworms website, together with a
list of memory hooks to aid your memorisation. Memory
hooks are for example, if you want to memorise the
Japanese number 10,000 = 'man', imagine a man with
10,000 Dollars in his hands - and you will easily remember.
How to use earworms: Don't think, just listen!
Sit back, relax and groove along to the melodies without
trying to listen too hard. Treat them as songs you hear on
the radio. Our recommendation is that you do familiarise
yourself with the written words in the booklet - at least
the first time you listen.
After listening several times, playfully test yourself -
cover up the English side of the phrase book and see
how many words and phrases you remember!
Lastly - a word of thanks
The earworms team would like to thank you for putting
your trust in our 'slightly different' learning concept
and are sure that you will have the success that many
others have already had. It's motivating to know that
learners are really benefiting from our research and
development. Also, as accelerated learning is a rapidly
growing field, we look forward to hearing your
experiences and successes - so feel free to visit us

As you will have noticed, counting in Japanese, once you have committed the
first ten numbers to memory, is a proverbial 'piece of cake'. 11 is simply 'ten -
one', 12 'ten - two' and so on up to 20 which is 'two ten'. 21 is 'two ten - one'
and in this way you continue to 99 which is, you guessed it, 'nine ten - nine' =
kyu ju kyu.
After you have listened a couple of times, just for fun run through all the num-
bers 1 - 99 in your mind to see if you can remember them. Try reciting them in
front of someone.
13. How often do I have to listen to the earworms CD
before I can really remember all the language on it?
With the appeal of the earworms songs we
hope that it is not a question of 'having to',
it is rather a question of 'wanting to'. But seriously:
the memory is like a muscle, it needs to be trained
and exercised. Based on scientific studies, the
ideal is listening relatively intensively at the
beginning (the learning phase), thereafter
listening periodically to review what you
have learnt and refresh your memory.
In practical terms this means listening to
the whole album the first day, in order to
'tune your ear in' to the sounds of the
language. Then listen regularly, several
times, over a period of one or two weeks,
making sure that you listen to every song
equally as many times. While listening,
actually speak the words out loud, when
you can, to get a feeling for their pronun-
ciation. After this, go through the booklet
and test your knowledge, picking out any
gaps that you may wish to concentrate on.
Lastly, the review phase. As we all know,
memories fade, so it is important to refresh
your memory by listening to the CD at your
leisure, say, once a week for the following few
weeks. Thereafter, monthly.
This review phase is crucial as it consolidates
your knowledge and transfers it into your
long-term memory. Although this demands
self-discipline, it is of course without effort,
as you are only listening to songs.
The result is that you will be able to recall the
words and phrases with the same ease that
you remember your telephone number!

Saying 'No'
In harmony conscious Japan, people try to avoid replying with a cold 'No'.

'Chotto' literally means 'a little' or 'somewhat'.
Sushi is not really my thing. I'm not so keen. o sushi wa chotto
delicious oishii
