Far Away Blog: Raising a Bilingual Child: Code Switching
http://kobekevin.blogspot.com/2013/08/raising-bilingual-child-code-switching.html
Monday, August 12, 2013. Raising a Bilingual Child: Code Switching. Code Switching - Up close and personal. I have to admit that watching my son’s language development is absolutely amazing. I grew up in “one language” household. My family used English. Now, my family in Japan uses both English in the house and outside as well. In linguistics, code switching is switching between two or more language varieties, in the context of a single conversation. You can follow me on Twitter: @jlandkev. I also found ...

Sunday, October 21, 2012. Japanese Mafia Headquarters.I take a look! So here’s the deal. I am coming near the end of my training for Osaka Marathon 2012. To the other, but decided something a little new for this morning’s 31km (20 mile) run. I wanted to make it a “destination” run so to speak. I decided that I would check out the compound that is the headquarters of the Yamaguchi-gumi. The Yamaguchi-gumi is the largest organized crime syndicate in Japan and is what is known as the yakuza. Didn't want to ...

Monday, January 14, 2013. Constantly Talking: a teaching tool. One piece of advice I give to new teachers, especially ones teaching second language learners is to constantly speak to them and ask them questions. This of course gives them more opportunities to hear English as well think in the language and speak it. Practice, practice, practice! The more you practice anything, the better you will become. Learning a language is no different. Today I went for a walk with my son and spoke to him the entire t...

http://kobekevin.blogspot.com/2013/08/5-scariest-bugs-in-japan.html
Friday, August 23, 2013. 5 Scariest Bugs in Japan. Scariest Insects in Japan. My Top 5 List (I realize that not all are "technically" bugs). Recently I was asked a question on my YouTube Facebook page. About creepy crawly things. Someone who plans to move to Japan shared with me that they are very frightened of spiders and fear they may have an allergy. They wondered if there are many spiders one should fear in Japan. Japanese Giant Hornet (Suzumebachi):. These fairly reclusive creatures tend to stay in ...

Awaji Island Starbucks | starbucksinjapan
https://starbucksinjapan.wordpress.com/2011/09/18/awaji-island-starbucks
What's new at Starbucks in Japan. There are people lined up out the door.”. Starbucks is really just like a family! Doesn’t matter how long you haven’t seen them, they still remember your name, your kids name and your drink order! That is true love! While there is only seating for about 30 or so, it was never full while we were there. So if you want to spend time sitting and enjoying the view, there will be room inside as well outside! It will be fun to compare the atmosphere at each store! Sep 28, 2011.
