Why I study Japanese?

I choose to study Japanese for three reasons. First, my major is Chinese Literature. In pre-modern as well as Republican China, Japan and China had had much conflicts and communications, which influenced literary works in both China and Japan. Also, many Japanese literati came to China during 1900s to 1950s, and they have written down many useful passages recording situation of that era. In order to expand my own research about Republican Chinese Literature, I decide to study Japanese. Secondly, I really enjoy Japanese food, such as sushi and salmon sashimi. on the other hand, landscape in Japan is amazing. Hence I would like to go to Japan one day, and I want to travel by myself without a tour guide. The final reason that I start to learn Japanese is that my department requires us to take one foreign Asian language. As to me, there is no doubt that the most important foreign Asian language is Japanese. I'm so lucky that I can learn Japanese with all of you!
