Research Abstract

This study attempts to analyze the difficulty of JFL listening comprehension through learners' dication errors. Dictation does not necessarily reflect aural comprehension as it is, i.e.wrong spelling does not necessarily mean misunderstanding of contents and vice versa. However, dictation written by learners is valuable as it shows some listening difficulties in a visible shape.
Six kinds of audio resources of about 4-5minutes length were given to learners so that they could write them down listening them as many times as they wanted. The number of total dication data is 173. A relational data-base of these dictation errors is expected to be useful for Japanese language teaching, though this has not been explored in this study. Instead, data is printed out so that the trends of errors can be seen.
The following issues are discussed.
1) Dictation errors spread over meaning units, or grammatical units, making database complex.
2) From the phonetic standpoint, errors are found in the combination of vowels, devoiced sounds, special mora, and r/t/k sounds in particular.
3) From the grammatical standpoint, errors are found in the particles, and other aural expressions such as toritate-joshi, sentence-final expressions that indicate aspect and mood, and modifying expressions using 'toiu', 'yoona' etc.
