At the 4th of December 2011 was the 日本語能力試験　or Japanese Language Proficiency Test which I participated in too.
And after three months of waiting my score report finally arrived in my mail box. The last time I failed and I only got a small envelope. This time I got a big one and I was rather confident. But they community college where the exam took place could have sent some information material too. I was still nervous while opening.

The Japanese Language Proficiency Test, JLPT for short, took place a few days ago in Düsseldorf, Germany.
The JLPT is a test to evaluate the proficiency of the japanese language and is held twice a year. One in summer and one in winter. The participants can choose one of 5 different levels with N5 being the easiest and N1 being the most difficult one. The japanese government planned to use the JLPT certificates in regards of long and permanent resident visas in 2008 but I am not up to date if this is already in process or kicked into the trash can.

After the last JLPT mission in 2009, which I failed, I decided to give it another try this year.
I haven’t learned much ever since for a year but recently I removed the dust from my textbook and finally became friends with Anki.

So once again I bought a useful supply for my japanese language studies. The Ultimate Japanese Phrasebook which I bought from amazon. As the cover says it contains 1800 sentence for each kind of everday situation and a free CD with mp3 files to listen to the phrases. What kind of phrases the buyer gets I will tell later on.

After hearing about the magazine Hir@gana Times over at Nihongo Notes and Tasty Miso, I decided to subscribe this magazine as well. (more…)

First, I am sorry for not writing about my japanese exam for a week. But I didn’t feel like it.

A few days ago I got a mail from the school in Düsseldorf who runs the JLPT with my Receipt Card, an invitation and a few infos about how everything is going to take place.

Today I got my application sheets for the JLPT thats going to be held at the 6th of december this year.

Since I am not a university student and currently not attending any language school or something I am going to challenge myself with the easiest stage. The stage 4.

I think this will be a good challenge for myself. Unfortunately, only 550 people are allowed to take the test in Düsseldorf.Those who apply first will get a seat. Hope I get one too.

I decided to not attend my japanese classes anymore
