Study Chinese, Korean & Japanese and travel to Beijing, Seoul & Tokyo!
This superclass gives you the chance to learn Chinese, Korean and Japanese language!
Although the three languages are very different, they do have much in common. Korean and Japanese are not related to the Chinese language all, but they both use a high number of Chinese characters and words, much like many European languages use Latin and Greek.
Out of the three, Chinese is arguably the easiest language for Westerners to learn and the language that is most similar to Norwegian/English. It's possible to form simple sentences from the first class. Japanese and Korean are more complex and harder to learn, but they are fairly similar, so knowing one is of great help if you are trying to learn the other.
Our school collaborates with language institutes in all three countries and there is a possibility to attend a second year where you can specialize in one of the languages and spend a period abroad attending a language institute in your chosen country.
