Last month (June, 2012), we
had the あいことば (aikotoba=passwords) contest to reinforce Japanese pronunciation,
rhythm, and tone.
＜Winners＞
☆ 1st Melissa Ginn
☆ 2nd Damien Hicks
☆ 3rd Alyshia Ryan
☆ special award for effort David Bourgeois
I would like to
congratulate not only winners but all participants who did such a great
job.
The judge was a
Japanese student at MUN. She said it was really difficult to choose because
everyone's entry was so good. I am also very impressed at how much improvement
that I am seeing in everyone's Japanese level.
Have you
heard the following proverbs?
「千里の道も一歩から」(せんりのみちもいっぽから)
A journey of a
thousand miles begins with a single step.
It means…
No matter how
large the task, it all starts with just one step. If something seems difficult,
try doing just a portion at a time. Eventually, you'll complete the task.
「学問に王道なし」（がくもんにおうどうなし）
There is no royal road to learning.
There is no royal road to learning.
It means…
There are no shortcuts or east roads in learning.
Do your best!
Do your best!
