February is the month when the New Year kicks off for me where resolutions and goals are made.
I’ve always been interested in languages and in fact, I once made a promise to a mate that I’m going to study for life. Here I am living that promise. But I don’t have anything to show for it. Yes, I can speak basic Japanese but learning all four skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking) is a different ball game. That’s what the JLPT is for. JLPT stands for Japanese Language Proficiency Test (日本語能力試験, Nihongo nōryoku shiken?). It’s a test to evaluate the language proficiency of non-native Japanese speakers. It is now as it stance held twice a year in July and December.
I hope to apply for the test in December and complete 4 kyu (level 4) and one day progress to 1 kyu (level 1) which is the most difficult.
Check the website for the application procedure.
