Nihonjin Family

For my Japanese class, nihongo kurasu, I had to find or draw pictures of various family members of the Japanese household. Below are some of the pictures I drew for the project for my class. The character you see at the beginning is the kanji. Then after the dash is the hiragana spelling of that kanji spelling. The pronunciation in romanji is in the parenthesis. And then the English meaning.

兄  - あに (ani) older brother

弟 - おとうと (otouto) little brother

妹 - いもうと (imouto) little sister

And of course, last but not least, 犬 - いぬ (inu) dog

Nihongo no kurasu (Japanese Class)

In Japanese language class, we had to make New Year's cards (年賀状-ねんがじょう -nengajyou) for the Japanese language table's volunteers. The year 2010 was the year of the tiger, hence the tiger! This was my cover for the card that I made.
