Dr. Jeffrey Angles's レクチャー

 Dr. Jeffrey Angles's レクチャー

  • Today, we attended an interesting lecture by Dr. Jeffrey Angles from Western Michigan University about life between two languages: English and Japanese. As a person who learned English as my second language and Japanese as my third language, many of the topics and experience that prof. Jeffrey shared have strongly resonate with my personal experience. For example, he said that sometimes we feel like our characteristics are shaped when speaking different languages and certain interesting points in literature can only be comprehended when you are reading the "original scripts". 
  • Moreover, when talking about his experience in Japan, the festivals, cultural differences that he mentioned all sounds fascinating which enlightened him about certain philosophical thoughts. That's also the reason why I want to go abroad to "see the world" outside of my original circles in my native areas no matter in U.S or Japan.
