Research On Foreign Language Anxiety in Japanese Acquisition

Foreign language anxiety is a common emotional factor in foreign language learning and is not conducive to learners' development. Since anxiety is specific to certain target languages, current research mainly focuses on English learners, and few studies take Asia languages, such as Chinese or Japanese as the target language. Based on these, this study reviews the current research on Japanese language learning anxiety from the perspective of linguistic classification and summarizes the teaching methods to reduce foreign language anxiety. It is proposed that teachers and learners should be encouraged to rethink their perceptions of mistakes. In addition, the order of knowledge acquisition of Japanese grammar should be respected, and the potential interest of learners in Japanese culture should be utilized. In addition, the establishment of a lighthearted and inclusive learning environment, the judicious use of group activities, and the appropriate administration of examinations and assessments can also be effective in alleviating anxiety.
