Traveling to the southwestern island of Shikoku where the earlier podcast on reincarnation and the pilgrimage took place, the author taught an intensive course on translation between Japanese and English at Matsuyama Shinonome College. Two professors there join in a discussion about how the Japanese language formed from thousands of years ago to the classical period (7th-11th Centuries). Then we discuss how Japanese people have confronted various foreign languages, translation issues, and why they have such difficulties in acquiring English.
