Japanese Language Program

Why Learn Japanese?

Japanese Language is actually called ‘NIHONGO’.

While most people outside Japan refer to the language as ‘Japanese,’ native speakers actually call it ‘Nihongo.’ This is the same with the name ‘Japan,’ which is referred to as ‘Nihon’ or ‘Nippon’ in the native dialect.

Japanese is one of the most fast-paced spoken languages in the world. Interestingly enough, Japan has a spoken syllable rate of nearly eight syllables per second. Our course covers Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji scripts.
