Book Overview

by Emiko Konomi (Author)

Everything you need to learn Japanese quickly!

Learning Japanese is a complete language learning package designed for people who want to learn to communicate in Japanese quickly and easily--whether on your own or with a teacher. The book introduces all the basics of the language including pronunciation, vocabulary and sentence patterns--so you can engage in simple conversations right from the start!

Useful explanations of the Japanese script, greetings and requests, verb conjugations, honorific forms and etiquette dos and don'ts are all included. A dictionary of commonly-used words and phrases is provided at the back.

The carefully-constructed lessons in this book all relate to useful everyday topics such as:
  • Introducing yourself and meeting people
  • Numbers, counting money and telling time
  • Going to a restaurant and ordering food
  • Talking about your family, hobbies and personal interests
  • Shopping, getting around and asking directions
  • Dealing with phones and IT issues

Hours of free native-speaker online audio recordings accompany the dialogues, vocabulary and exercises--enabling you to practice pronouncing and understanding all the Japanese words and sentences! Free downloadable flashcards available online are also a great help in memorizing the vocabulary and phrases, and memorable manga-style comic strips provide helpful visual prompts for the dialogues.

This ultimate language has everything you need--at a fraction of the price of expensive language kits!
