Class#12 Education

Ms.Monika tell that Hungary languages education develop. For example some Hungarian can speak German(=use a house)Hungarian(=use at school) English(= study). Then, the various of Hungary education way. It's wonderful thing. Japan is same that we go to elementary school for 6 years, and Junior high school 3 years.

when Ms. Monika finish her presentation, I think that. Japanese study English only, and English skill is very bad. We should study foreign languages. Then we should approach for foreign country something and learn good things of foreign country.

Do you agree with the writer Minae Mizumura (“The Fall of Japanese in the Age of English”)　when she says that”, “the dominance of English, especially with the advent of the Internet, threatens to reduce all other national languages to mere “local” languages that are not taken seriously by scholars. The education system, she argues, doesn’t spend enough time teaching Japanese.”Why? Give at least 3 reasons to support your answer.

I agee with her. Because some young people make a lot of abbreviation. And some book are bad writing and content(=use Hiragana a lot) Where are Kanzi? Finally, People of today don't use old words. It is very bad things. We should protect thier words.

Do you agree or disagree with the author (who is Japanese).
Please explain why in your blog.


I agree with the author. Because some men tease or turn away the women when women confess. Some men said that I must call everyday, buy expensive presents. Love relationship is no profit to be gained for me. Some men can't understand women, and they said that women is alein. Then, finally, They said that my honey is job or hobbies. It is really true.

And that's why "Himote"(非モテ=They don't want to be very popular with women.)" and Soushokukeidannshi"(=Who likes herbivore.) are exist in Japan.

My opoinion is that it is very stupid. The modern Japanese men and they escape from women and inconvenient things(=call every day, do housework and education). Why do they only think immediate profit. It is very stupid!!! Why they don't underestand wonderful things of love relationship and education. If you depress about work or have fever, your girlfriend help you. If you marry, You will not be lonly when you are old people. Indeed, If you have a baby, you are happy. Then, they need to learn love and respect of differences, and help each other. I think that Marriage(=the men have a love relation ship) has many pain, but celibacy(=the men doesn't have a love relation ship.) has few pleasure.
