| One of the questions we get asked at J-List a lot is, "I want to start learning Japanese, what book do you recommend?" Most textbooks are entirely dry, uninteresting, and cannot follow a student's pace, leaving students frustrated. However, a new series by The Japan Times has recently taken Japanese language for foreigners by storm, and comes highly recommended by anyone who has taken it -- Genki, An Integrated Course in Elementary Japanese. The entire course has 23 lessons, guiding the student from the beginning until the student has mastered elementary grammar and can read not only hiragana and katakana but over 300 of the most commonly used kanji as well. Each lesson has: 1) a dialogue introducing vocabulary and grammar in a situation the student may find familiar; 2) a list of the vocabulary with hiragana, katakana, kanji and English meaning; 3) grammar with full explanations in English; 4) interesting usage notes; 5) several pages of practice questions designed to be fun and interesting incorporating dialogue skills, writing skills, and thinking skills; 6) additional vocabulary. Each lesson also has a complementary lesson in hiragana/katakana/kanji, with reading and writing exercises. The separate workbook has more writing exercises and kanji writing practice. This is simply the recommended textbook for anyone beginning Japanese up to 3rd level in the JLPT. THIS BOOK: This book is the answer key book containing all the answers to both Genki I and Genki II, for both the workbook and textbook. All the exercises are answered here, with page numbers corresponding to their place in the Genki workbooks and textbooks.

| Here's a fascinating way to use your Nintendo DS to learn Japanese more effectively: the Kanji Sonomama Dictionary, which turns any Nintendo DS into a very useful tool for learning Japanese. There are four dictionaries -- English-Japanese, Japanese-English, Kokugo (Japanese-Japanese, the best way to learn) and Kanji, with 240,000 entries at your fingertips. While you can input words with the optional on-screen keyboard, the best way to enter words is using the stylus, which can accurately read the kana, kanji and English letters you enter for speedy lookup. Input is done on the lower screen, while results appear on the top screen -- it's beautiful! There are many other features, too, such as pronunciation of English words, a "Jump" feature for looking up English words, several quiz functions, the ability to save words for later study, and more. About this software product: This is a standard Nintendo DS software cartridge made for the Japanese market. It is compatible with DS hardware (both the original DS as well as DS Lite) from around the world. Note that the software itself and game manual are in Japanese. We recommend that you use this program with other study tools to learn the correct pronunciations for Japanese. Recommended for students with one year of previous study at least.

| Beginning kanji study needn't be difficult -- this new series by Alc (who also produce the only monthly magazine for Japanese language study directed at students, the Nihongo Journal) allows us to master the essentials of kanji, covering levels 4 and 3 of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test, with only 15 minutes of practice a day! Each lesson contains 6 kanji. Each kanji is introduced with onyomi and kunyomi (the Chinese and Japanese pronunciations. Each kanji also has sample words made with that kanji along with sample sentences to practice understanding and reading in context. Finally, the writing of the kanji is shown (with stroke order) and you are given space to practice writing the kanji. In the second section of the book are short quizzes that test your understanding, and an answer key and index are included. The two volumes together help you learn 555 kanji, and translations are given in English, Chinese and Korean as well. An excellent way to learn kanji -- in small daily doses kanji practice is incredibly manageable and fun at the same time without getting over your head, and if you practice every day, within 3 months you will have a mastery over the kanji necessary for the two lower levels of the JLPT as well as a head start on 2nd level kanji. This purchase is for Volume One (Jou), the first half of this course. 190 pages, perfectbound. Recommended Level: Beginner, but as there is no romaji, the student should be able to already read hirogana and katakana before starting this course. (More like this) (Direct link to this product) |
