In recent years, the number of Japanese language learners with multilingual backgrounds has been increasing. It is expected that in the future, the number of foreign language users staying for short and long terms will also rise. In this context, this research aims to develop a system that supports effective Japanese phonetic learning for multilingual Japanese language learners and proposes it as a platform, conducting empirical research. In particular, this study focuses on the aspect that is often a major concern when learning a language, which is the "authenticity of the language." "Natural Japanese" is very subjective, and evaluations can vary greatly depending on the listener, making it elusive for learners of Japanese and complicating the learning process itself. Therefore, this research intends to explain the authenticity of the language more objectively by using evaluations based on indicators that simulate the perceptual processing that people actually engage in, and to connect this to language support. I believe that this research will serve as foundational research for the development of autonomous language learning applications in an increasingly diverse society.
