Annual Events
In this lesson, you will learn the particularly important “annual events” among the common knowledge needed for classical Japanese. Rather than memorizing words alone, aim to explain their structure and reasons in your own words.
Key Point
Events such as the Five Seasonal Festivals are connected with the seasonal sense of the lunar calendar, so they may not align with dates or seasons in the current solar calendar.
