Abstract

Dialect is one of the forms of language variation that reflects the social and geographical identity of its speakers, and it plays an important role in cultural representation in media, including anime. The Kansai dialect, spoken in Japan's Kansai region, varies from standard Japanese in phonetics, grammar, and vocabulary. By analyzing Inuyama Aoi's dialogues, the study aims to understand how the Kansai dialect shapes her character and influences viewers' perceptions. The methodology involves transcribing and analyzing her dialogues to identify distinctive Kansai dialect features such as pitch accent, grammar, and vocabulary. The study seeks to reveal how the dialect contributes to portraying Inuyama Aoi's personality and background. Initial findings indicate that the Kansai dialect highlights her regional identity and cultural background, enhances the anime's authenticity, and adds humor and warmth to her character. This research deepens our understanding of dialects in anime and their role in character development, providing insights into nuanced and authentic character portrayals.

Abstract

Distance learning that works during the covid-19 pandemic changed the student's ability to receive or understand the learning content. Kanji is one of the difficult lecture materials for Japanese language students. A very large number of kanji letters and students' study habits are only made before a test becomes an obstacle in mastering kanji, so persistence, interest, and motivation are needed to learn kanji during distance learning. The preliminary study results show that students' motivation and interest decreased during distance learning. This study aims to determine whether there is an effect of distance learning on the ability to read kanji in fourth-semester students. The instrument used was a questionnaire distributed online with 47 students of Japanese Language Education class 2019 involved as respondents. The study results show that distance learning affects students' kanji reading skills by 22.4%. A student's ability to read kanji is influenced by external and internal factors, including a lack of support from friends and family during the study from home, lack of interest in learning kanji during distance learning, lack of time to practice and learn kanji every day, and students still tend to learn kanji only when there is an exam

Abstract

Cross-cultural understanding is a crucial competency for students participating in international internship programs, particularly in Japan, which is known for its distinctive work norms and social values. This study aims to analyze the cultural understanding levels of students from the Japanese Language Education Program at Universitas Negeri Semarang who joined internships in Japan in 2023 and 2024. The data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 25 participating students. The results reveal that students' understanding of general culture was 24%, Japanese work culture 64%, and cultural aspects in Japanese communication 76%. The highest comprehension was in dining culture (92%), while the lowest was in workplace discipline (16%). These findings suggest a gap in students’ understanding of both general and work-specific Japanese culture. Theoretically, this study contributes to the discourse on the need to integrate Japanese work culture education into university curricula, thereby holistically preparing students for the cultural challenges they will encounter in the Japanese workplace environment.

Abstract

This article aims to identify the characteristics of the TBLT approach and its potential integration in learning to read Japanese (dokkai); describe the digitization of learning that can support the effectiveness of TBLT in Japanese reading skills (dokkai); and prepare a conceptual design for the implementation of digital-based TBLT that can be implemented in the context of dokkai learning in higher education. Using a conceptual research approach and literature review, this article provides a theoretical basis and direction for the implementation of digital task-based reading learning. The results show that in the context of dokkai, tasks designed according to the characteristics of the TBLT approach can be activities such as responding to Japanese news by making personal opinions, compiling a summary of a group reading, comparing two informational texts, or compiling a concept map based on the content of the reading. Then the use of digital technology is able to strengthen the implementation of TBLT, especially in the context of reading learning. Technology allows students to access authentic texts in multimodal form (text, videos, infographics), process information collaboratively, and express the results of understanding in creative formats such as blogs, podcasts, or videos. Furthermore, a conceptual model for the application of digital-based TBLT in dokkai learning in higher education was formulated. The model includes five main components: (1) authentic reading task selection, (2) integration of task support technologies, (3) collaboration in task completion, (4) reflection and metacognition, and (5) formative feedback.

Abstract

This study investigates the challenges faced by fifth-semester Japanese Language Education students at Semarang State University in learning N3 level Kanji. Kanji, the most complex of the Japanese writing systems due to its multiple readings and intricate strokes, is essential for understanding everyday texts. Utilizing a quantitative approach, data were collected from 13 students through questionnaires. The findings reveal major difficulties in focusing during self-study at home, memorizing Kanji meanings and writings, and understanding the usage of Kanji in context. Specifically, 33.3% of students struggled with home study concentration, 33.3% had trouble remembering Kanji meanings and writings, and 30.0% found it challenging to comprehend Kanji usage in sentences or texts. Despite positive perceptions of classroom learning, these insights highlight the need for improved teaching strategies and academic support. The study concludes with recommendations for adopting more effective teaching methods and providing additional resources to enhance Kanji learning outcomes for students.

Abstract

Based on the results of the questionnaire on students of the Japanese Language Education study program, Semarang State University, it was found that idioms were considered difficult. In contrast, interest in learning idioms was quite high by students. Therefore, the researcher developed an alternative learning media in the form of a board game called Kanyouku Asobi that has material in the form of idioms and Japanese culture to overcome the difficulty of learning idioms to make the learning process enjoyable. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach and aims to describe students` responses and impressions in using Kanyouku Asobi. Primary data in this study were obtained using questionnaire techniques and direct observation, and documentation as secondary data. The questionnaire used in this study was a mixed questionnaire with a Likert scale to determine the accumulation of responses and overall impressions from students in using the media. Direct observation was carried out to strengthen the results of the questionnaire. Documentation was also carried out to record and complete the results of observations so that they can provide real evidence of the research results. Data analysis used qualitative descriptive techniques. The results of the questionnaire showed a percentage of 91% on the indicator of the benefits of learning media and 88% on the indicator of the impression of using learning media. Based on the Likert scale index, it was concluded that the response and impression of students in using Kanyouku Asobi as an alternative to learning Japanese idioms and culture were good.

Abstract

Foreign language learning is highly prevalent in Indonesia, with Japanese being one of the most widely studied languages, largely due to strong bilateral cooperation between Indonesia and Japan. This collaboration has opened up employment opportunities and facilitated educational partnerships, particularly through internship programs between Japanese language study programs at universities and LPK Japan (Non-IM Japan). These placements motivate students to significantly improve their linguistic capabilities. This study aims to analyze the effect of internships in Japan on enhancing Japanese language students' speaking skills and intercultural competence. The research utilized a quantitative descriptive methodology with a questionnaire as the primary instrument. Sampling was conducted using purposive sampling, focusing on Japanese language program students who had participated in internships in Japan within the last 6 months to 1 year. The validity and reliability of the instrument were statistically confirmed using Pearson's correlation and Cronbach's Alpha, respectively, with 50 respondents. The results indicate that the internships provide significant advantages to the participants. Specifically, the findings show a positive correlation between the internship experience and both variables under study. Key benefits include an increase in student self-confidence and the ability to engage in effective cross-cultural exchange with host-country personnel. The study concludes that collaborative internship programs are highly effective in producing graduates who are professionally competent and interculturally aware.
