The language, which will be offered as a five hour course, will be taught by Robert Sakai, at present an instructor in Ori ental history. Sakai was in the language division of the army and was head of a language school for interpreters in Sen dai, Japan. What a Japanese says and what he writes are quite different ac cording to Sakai. The written language, he explained, oame from China through Korea al though today the Japanese charac ter represents a sound while the Chinese character connotes an idea. "The speaking language is very simple," remaiked Mr. Sa kai. "There are only five basic sounds with the vowels pro nounced almost exactly as in S punish." An everyday vocabulary ot the language can be mastered in a one year course, Sakai predicted. In relation to the difficult tran slation of Japanese, Sakai com mented that many Japanese terms are unexpressible in English. "Many of the people's atti tudes can be revealed only by tneir own special vocabulary," he said. Aid such as that given to serv icemen going to Korea and Japan, the many tourists, and the stu dents of the Far East is one of the main advantages of such a course, Sakai explained. We must realize, he continued, that a "source of trouble in our foreign affairs with Japan was our obvious lack of knowledge of their language. More and more people 'are realizing the need for understanding the Far East irom the terms of their own language." Prof. James Sellers, speaking for the history department, also pointed out that Japanese taken '. in connection with Oriental his tory opens a new field for stu dents preparing for either pri vate business or political ca reers. Commenting on the classifica tion of Japanese as a romance language, Dr. Boyd Carter, chair man of the romance language de partment said that "aside from the fact that a laboratory was needed for the students of Japanese, the only justification I can think of is the fact that I sometimes re ceive letters addressed to the "De partment of Romance and Lan guage." "And, since Japanese Is often thought of as a romantic land of cherry blossoms blooming under the shadow of giant snow-covered volcanoes, the romance language department seemed the best clas sification," he said.
