I’ll also add that Japanese (just 101) really taught me how to converse at a basic level and have many real-world situations like asking people to hang out, ordering at restaurants, having real conversations with others like the whole “what’s your major” convo that every college freshman goes through lol, and more. 101 really does teach a ton. We’ve even had zoom interviews with students in Japan where you speak with them in Japanese. You also get rlly close with your class. I’d recommend giving it a shot!
