You are cordially invited to Japanese & English Language table, which will be held on Friday, January 28th at Japan Center. We welcome Japanese students, NCSU, Duke and UNC students studying Japanese and Japanese people living in this area who want to practice speaking English. The purpose of this gathering is for American students to meet Japanese people to practice Japanese, for Japanese people to meet Americans, and to make friends. Home style food made by volunteers will be provided. Enjoy this informal and cultural meeting! Language table is sponsored by Dept of Foreign Lan and Lit at NCSU.
January plan:
(1) We will play Japanese traditional card games “karuta” and “hanagaruta” which
Japanese play on New Year’s Day.
(2) Special New Year Calligraphy: Write your resolution of the year in Japanese.
(3) We will talk about our winter break. Please bring your short essay in
Japanese.
Any donations such as a bottle of water, food, chips or fruit, cookies are fully appreciated.
We use real plates and chopsticks for dinner to reduce trash and to save our resources. We will take turns and wash them after Language table. Please help us!
Now we have our language table website. Please visit it! Thank you, Sera-sensei!
