Abstract

The study reports on the effect of ‘Cognitive Illustration’ in Kanji learning in the JFL setting. Cognitive illustration is not a formal concept that can be found regularly in Kanji teaching and learning methods. It is purposely used in this study to describe ‘kinds of imagery that students have when they see or hear a Kanji character and its meaning by referring to its formation process, including pictographs (shoukei moji), simple ideographs (shiji moji), compound ideographs (kai-i moji), and phonetic-ideographic characters (keisei moji)’. Involving twenty-eight students taking a Kanji course, namely fifteen students participated in the experimental class and thirteen students participated in the control class, this experimental research observes the effect of cognitive illustration on students who learn hundreds and fifteen Kanji of Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) N5 or basic level. The results show that students in the experimental class perform better in Kanji memorization than those in the control groups. It can be seen from the t-test results with the t-score value obtained (11,38) which is much higher than the t-table, both at the 5% (2,06) and 1% (2,78) significance levels. In relation to Kanji learning, there are some factors that contribute to the enhancement of Kanji learning, including varying Kanji learning strategies, thorough guided instruction, and ordering Kanji strategies.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to provide opportunities for teachers to gain, strengthen and increase knowledge and experience about online-based Japanese language learning models, explore online-based Japanese language learning models that can be used in their classroom contexts and apply learning models Japanese in their respective classes effectively. The target of this activity is Japanese language teachers at the SMA/SMK/MA level throughout Indonesia. This activity was carried out online through three webinars which were mapped into three stages. The first stage is the distribution of questionnaires containing questions regarding experiences of exploring and using online-based learning models before being given training. This stage was not carried out via webinar but was collected via a Google form which was sent to the participants. The data was processed to obtain their background regarding their experience of using online-based Japanese language learning models in their respective schools. The second stage included two webinars that presented presentations and simulations from experts and practitioners of online-based Japanese language learning models, especially in teaching letters, vocabulary, grammar and skills including listening, reading, writing and speaking. The final stage is practice in the form of a simulation for the participants in using online-based Japanese language learning models which have been presented in two webinars. At the end of the activity, a questionnaire containing questions about experiences and impressions of using online-based learning models after training will be distributed. Through this training activity, it is hoped that Japanese language teachers in Indonesia can apply existing online-based learning models effectively so that the predetermined learning competencies can be achieved and students become competent in Japanese.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze errors in the use of jouken hyougen among learners of the Japanese language. It focuses on identifying the common types of errors and describing the factors that cause these errors. The research employs a mixed-method approach, combining quantitative and qualitative methods. The participants consist of 21 students from Widyatama University, who have studied Japanese for at least two years. Data were collected through written tests, multiple choice questions, true-false questions, and questionnaires. The result of the data analysis reveal that the most frequent errors occured in the use of the tara form, followed by errors in the to and ba forms. Many learners experience difficulties in understanding the appropriate context for each sentence structure, requiring more time to study jouken hyougen, experiencing confusion in distinguishing the different forms, and make mistakes in applying the gramatical rules. The percentage of errors recorded was 52.37% for the to form, 47.61% for the ba form, 76.19% for the tara form, and 33.32% for the nara form. The factors contributing to these errors include learners lack of understanding of the proper function and use of each form in sentences, the influence of interference of their mother tongue, insufficient practice in writing and speaking with jouken hyougen in real life situations, and social factors.

Abstract

This study compares the semantic similarities and differences between the Japanese adjective usui and the Indonesian adjective tipis. Using a qualitative method based on Koyanagi’s linguistic phenomena, data were collected from a Japanese language corpus such as nlb.ninjal.ac.jp from 1985 to 2005 and news articles in both Japanese and Indonesian (asahi.com, nhk.co.jp, jawapos.com, cnbcindonesia.com, antaranews.com and tribunnews.com from 2015 to 2024). The findings reveal seven shared meanings: (1) a short distance between two surfaces, (2) thin layers, (3) low gas density, (4) sparse hair or fur, (5) minimal impact or benefit, (6) subtle emotional expression, and (7) weak belief or confidence. Differences in semantic scope were also identified. Usui includes additional meanings such as (1) pale in color, (2) diluted, and (3) bland in taste or senses that not present in tipis. Conversely, tipis also conveys the meaning of (1) being easily irritated, which is not found in usui. Additionally, the study identifies instances of icchi, ketsujou, and shinki. These findings offer valuable insights that may benefit beginner to semi-advanced Japanese language learners and Japanese language teaching, particularly in the field of language education and semantic understanding.
