Customer Reviews

a very good book

Great book, I have this one and Japanese for beginners by Gakken and they helped me a lot with advanced grammar and writing. Very recommended for those who already know the basic grammar and pronunciation.

Great Self Teach Book

I first encountered this book when I was in High School, as a Year 11 textbook. Having bought myself a copy, I have found it to be amazingly helpful, right through until the end of my second year of learning Japanese at University. Although at first it may seem intimidating, the pace at which this book is set is challenging, yet entirely achievable. It begins with very simple conversations, such as introductions and directions, and moves through to discuss modern Japanese literature, in Japanese. Each chapter is clearly set out, featuring sections of Japanese text, its English translation, new vocabulary and a section upon the grammar used in that chapter. It also has teaching and learning exercises at the end of each chapter. If you want a Japanese text to take you past the mere basics, this is a brilliant purchase.
