Course Details

Japanese is the official language of Japan. It is also widely used by communities of speakers in Hawaii, Peru and Brazil, and learnt as an additional language by large numbers of students in the Republic of Korea, China, Indonesia and Australia.

Australia has a significant number of Japanese national residents, particularly in the major cities on the eastern seaboard. Japanese culture influences many areas of contemporary Australian society and there is ongoing exchange between the two countries in the areas of education, trade, diplomacy and tourism.

Japanese has been taught in Australia for more than 100 years and is widely taught as a second language in Australian schools. Japanese uses three scripts for writing: hiragana, katakana, and kanji. Japanese grammar is relatively uniform. An element of the language that may be unfamiliar to some Australian learners is the system of plain and polite forms. Japanese is a phonetic language.

Pronunciation is predictable, and new words can be pronounced easily upon mastery of hiragana characters. The curriculum is designed with an intercultural language learning orientation to enable students to participate meaningfully in intercultural experiences, to develop new ways of seeing and being in the world, and to understand more about themselves in the process.
