In this lecture, we will identify the challenges Japanese language learners face when learning the vocabulary used in actual business contexts, and introduce learning methods to overcome these challenges. We will deepen our understanding through practice exercises and commentaries. During the lecture, we will also engage in activities that involve solving mock questions from the BJT Business Japanese Proficiency Test.
