Uchinaaguchi (Okinawan Language) Class

Chogi Higa founded the Ucchinaaguchi Class in 2002 in an effort to preserve and broaden the natural language of Okinawa. As the founder and Shinshii (instructor), he believes that in order to fully understand the Okinawan culture, one must also become familiar with its language.

The Uchinaaguchi class, “Katayabira Uchinaaguchi (Let’s talk in Okinawan language)” usually meets on the 2nd Friday of every month from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM in room #103 at the OAA Center.

The class is conducted in both Uchinaaguchi and English. The course is predominantly based on learning the basic vocabulary, grammar, dialogue and conversation.
 
There is a $5 donation requested at each class to cover the cost of handouts, snacks and other miscellaneous expenses. This class is open to OAA members only. If you are not a member, you can contact the OAA at (310) 532-1929 or via email at oaamensore@gmail.com for membership information. Dates/times subject to change without notice.
