Troubleshooting: Observe → Hypothesize → Test → Report
Use course grammar to describe a problem without confusing observation, hypothesis, and action.
- Reasons, explanation, conditionals, possibility, advice, purpose.
This is a practical developer/technical scenario and a strong exercise in disciplined language.
1. Treat troubleshooting as a language pipeline
OBSERVATION is what happened. HYPOTHESIS is what might explain it. TEST is what you do to check. RESULT is what happened after.
2. Read a disciplined incident exchange
3. Troubleshooting decision tree
Build two complete incident trees with evidence, uncertainty, conditions, and next actions.
INTERACTIVE WORKSHEET
3. Troubleshooting decision tree

Language IDE
Why here: Troubleshooting language has nested clauses and several logical relationships.
How to use it for this lesson: Parse each sentence into FACT / POSSIBILITY / PURPOSE / CONDITION.
Debug incident language →Side by Side Reader
Why here: Technical Japanese becomes easier when you identify function before translating every word.
How to use it for this lesson: Use a controlled technical page and mark conditions, purposes, and qualified nouns.
Read technical structure →Mastery checkpoint
Answer from memory and repair any weak structure before moving on.
