This study comprises a survey regarding the thoughts of Japanese teachers working in various educational institutions on improving the teaching approach of Japanese pronunciation in class and phonetics in training Japanese teachers. In this study, the relationship between teachers' beliefs (regarding language learning and teaching Japanese pronunciation) and backgrounds will be discussed on the basis of the results of the pilot survey. In conclusion, three patterns of beliefs and four groups of informants were found: Two groups teaching advanced level Japanese and taking pronunciation into consideration and other two groups teaching primary level Japanese, and not taking pronunciation into consideration.

The Japanese interjection un as a negative response is said to have a unique tone-the falling-rising tone. However, the pitch of a Japanese word does not generally rise after a fall caused by accent. In order to verify the description of the falling-rising tone given in previous studies, I conducted two kinds of experiments: a reading task and a perception test. I found that the interjection requires a rising tone after falling. Therefore, I considered there to be two tone patterns of the interjection: a slight rising tone after falling and a prominent rising tone after falling.
