Living Japanese: Diversity in Language and Lifestyles (Ikita
Nihongo: samazama na kotoba, samazama na seikatsu) draws students
into the lives of thirty-three Japanese from ages seven to
seventy-five. As students listen to diverse viewpoints on cultural
and social issues, they will develop an extensive vocabulary and
become accustomed to natural speech and linguistic differences. The
workbook contains a transcription of all interviews, a cultural
introduction to each topic, a complete vocabulary list, and grammar
explanations. Furigana are provided in the transcriptions and notes
to facilitate reading. Discussion questions encourage students to
research the topics further, to think about and discuss recurrent
themes, to speak or write about the topic in terms of their own
culture or experience, and to seek out the views of native
speakers. The online media and workbook will facilitate development
of the five major skill areas delineated in the National Standards
for Japanese Language Learning. Spontaneous interviews exploring
twenty topics are available for online viewing, including: *
Family, living environment, household crafts, architecture *
Farming for health, eating habits in a fast-paced society * Issues
faced by children, working women, and the elderly * Student life;
views of marriage among young people * Anime, manga, revival of
traditional arts * Ways of viewing and valuing nature,
environmental education * Buddhist thought on the interrelatedness
of all things * Japanese songs and their context * Childhood
memories, including school life during World War II * Linguistic
differences, Japanese Sign Language
