- Learning Journal 12: State your learning goals for this week and how you went about accomplishing these goals.
Goals:
- To finish my final task, outlined in the learning language plan as:
Application: Think about context in which you would tell time — transportation — busses and Ojek, and taxi. How to pay, how to ask for price, how to exchange within these circumstances.
- To continue research on my culture project, which examines the use of "kin" terms when addressing others. This research topic, moreover, will provide insight into Indonesian culture more broadly.
- To Finish my culture project
- To rehearse the pronunciation of the Indonesian alphabet
Accomplish:
- This week's agenda was straightforward, so:
- I researched the norms associated with Balinese transportation. There are four main transportation methods: taxi, bus, shared taxi, and a motorbike-type taxi
- I learned how to approach each means of transportation
- I learned how to ask "How much does this cost?"
- I learned how to say "Stop here, please."
- I learned how to say "Can you take me to..."
- I rehearsed the Indonesian alphabet
Finally, I met with my language partner to practice what I have learned as well as to ask for advice concerning my culture project.
