Japanese Language

Course Overview

Japanese Language Course

The Japanese Language (Nihongo – 日本語) uses a unique and well-structured writing system that combines Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji.

  • Hiragana is mainly used for grammatical structures and native Japanese words.

  • Katakana is used for foreign words, loan words, and names.

  • Kanji, derived from Chinese characters, forms a major part of written Japanese and is widely used in daily communication.

At 19CHT, our Japanese language course is designed to help learners understand these scripts step-by-step while building strong reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills.

Pronunciation

Japanese has a limited set of sounds and clear pronunciation rules, making it easier for beginners to start speaking quickly. While mastering the accent takes practice, it is generally simpler than many other Asian languages and is taught systematically at 19CHT through guided speaking exercises.

Grammar Structure

Japanese grammar is comparatively simple and logical. There are no gender distinctions and minimal plural forms. Verb and adjective conjugations follow consistent patterns, making the language easier to understand and apply in real-life communication.

Levels of Speech (Politeness)

Japanese uses different levels of speech depending on the situation and the relationship between speakers. The way you speak to elders, friends, family members, or in professional settings varies. At 19CHT, students are trained to use appropriate polite and casual forms, ensuring confident and culturally correct communication.
