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 (the original DS, DS Lite and the new DSi) 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. |

| TUTTLE083 Kata: The Key to Understanding and Dealing with the Japanese |
This item is in stock in San Diego. Weight: 350 g. Price: $14.95
Product type: Japanese Literature
|
|
| In this first book ever to explain why the Japanese think and behave the way they do, veteran Japanologist Boye Lafayette De Mente, author of more than 30 books on Japan, unlocks the mystery of kata - the cultural molds that have traditionally shaped and defined the attitudes, behavior, and character of the Japanese and are primarily responsible for the traits and talents that make them different from other people - to explain what makes the Japanese Japanese, and how it effects all their personal, professional, and political affairs!
In some 70 brief essays, ranging from the "Art of Bowing" and "Importance of the Apology" to "The Compulsion for Quality" and "Exchanging Name-Cards," the author looks at the origin, nature, use, and influence of kata (literally the form and order of doing things) in Japanese life and how this cultural conditioning causes the Japanese to think and react in the way they do. Because all relations with the Japanese are influenced by kata, the key to dealing with the Japanese in personal or business matters requires knowing how and when to induce or compel them to break the kata and behave in a non-Japanese way.
For your convenience, this book is stocked in San Diego.
