Abstract

Language and culture have very close relationship. Language is the carrier of culture, and culture can guide language in turn. So, to master a language, it is required to deeply analyze the culture. Japanese is a national language of Japan has dense Japanese culture connotation. When we learn Japanese, we should carefully learn Japanese culture. Thus, Japanese teachers should attach importance to introducing Japanese culture in Japanese teaching. However, Japanese teaching excessively values cultivation and improvement of basic listening, speaking, reading, writing and translation ability, but greatly neglects Japanese culture introduction in teaching. To change such situation, we must practically and properly introduce Japanese culture in Japanese teaching and really improve Japanese teaching quality and level.
