ASC and the Japanese language program at Pitt are offering a series of Japanese language tables on campus for students of Japanese language. The second session of the series is “Learning to be a Japanese Interpreter!” This session is designed for all level of Japanese students-- 1st, 2nd and 3rd year (+up). You will be helping to communicate a native Japanese speaker and a Native English speaker. In this session:
• You will be playing a role of an interpreter between two persons.
• You will be interpreting Japanese to English, also English to Japanese.
• There will be different levels of interactions. (1st year, 2nd year and 3rd year) in similar context.
• Structural Patterns and vocabularies outside of JSL are NOT required, so it will be an excellent review and exercise for your Act class (or the midterm!).
This is a fun and practical application of your language training. Let’s see how much you can help these two people who have trouble communicating each other!
