USJETAA Japanese Reading Group - March 2023

The goal of the USJETAA Japanese Reading Group is to help advanced beginner and intermediate level students improve their reading skills. Each month we will look at a short reading from Aozora Bunko, a repository of public domain literature. Participants should attempt to do the reading on their own and come to the meeting with any questions. We will spend the meeting each month reading the assignment sentence by sentence to understand how the Japanese is working.

In March, we'll be reading 故郷に帰りゆくこころ (The Feeling of Returning Home) by Kamura Isota, a short essay about returning to his hometown to see the fall leaves change color. https://www.aozora.gr.jp/cards/000249/files/55726_76541.html
