Abstract(in English)	We porpose a decision method of accent type for computer assisted Japanese language learning. In the method, we use two features such as a realtive position of accent and decade of logarithmic fundamental frequency. In the experiment for the decision uttered by announers, the correct score for decision of accent type is 97%. So we can say that the method is effective. For the decision uttered by foreign students, the score is 69% which includes wrong accent utterances. So we can say that the method is useful for foreign students to learn Japanese speech.
