| PB567 Kanji Power Handbook for the Japanese Language Proficiency Test |
Number in stock: 4 Weight: 350 g. Price: $26.00
Product type: Study Item

| In December, tens of thousands of people across the world gather in test-centers to have their knowledge of the Japanese language put to the test. Every year the test gets a little bit harder, and making the passing grade requires more and more preparation. Unfortunately, books to assist in studying for the test are hard to come by, but J-List is proud to bring you some of the materials that can be found here in Japan. No matter what level you're testing for, from the 4th level (the easiest) to the 1st (the hardest) this Kanji Power Handbook is on the short list of necessary guidebooks. Revised following the level revisions in 2002, this up-to-date handbook contains all of the kanji necessary for all levels of the test. The most important section, the listing by reading, is a powerful dictionary of kanji, including all readings of kanji, JLPT level, meaning in English, Korean and Chinese, and several examples of the use of the kanji that you are likely to see on the Japanese Language Proficiency Test. After that are indexes of kanji based on stroke order, radical, and most importantly, organized by level on the JLPT. This book is an important reference tool for anyone studying for the test. Even when you are not studying, it is also a handy and portable kanji reference guide. 320 pages, 5 x 7", softcover perfectbound. |

| DS6449 Beautiful Kanji Training |
Number in stock: 4 Weight: 200 g. Price: $58.00
Product type: NINTENDO DS
|

| Another amazing concept for Nintendo DS, this is a new game that teaches you to write beautiful kanji characters in Japanese. To use it, put the cartridge in your Nintendo DS and boot the game, and turn your DS on its side like a book. There are four choices at the main menu: Writing Check (which tests your ability to write characters with the proper stroke order, with several options); Daily Beautiful Kanji Training, regular practice for writing more beautifully; Everyone Beautiful Kanji, a party game for 2-6 players in which a group of people can compete to write, with options for limiting the character level to third grade or sixth grade; and Beautiful Kanji Dictionary, which lets you write your own characters and get advice on how to make them more beautiful or teach you how kanji characters came to mean what they mean. The game is special because it acts just like a Japanese teacher, patiently correcting the characters you get wrong, fixing stroke order or circling in read points you need to notice. A really amazing tool for students of Japanese! 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 three years of previous study at least. Great for studying the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test).

| PB888 Genki I ~ An Integrated Course in Elementary Japanese 1 Textbook |
Number in stock: 1 Weight: 900 g. Price: $50.00
Product type: Japanese Study Book

| 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 textbook I, starting from no knowledge to knowing hiragana, katakana and the first 145 kanji. Romanization of Japanese is used in the first two lessons to help students unfamiliar with hiragana and katakana, but soon tries to ween the student off romanization. Has Lessons 1 - 12 and follows the structure as written above. Indexes are in the back as well as tables for numbers, counters and verb conjugations. 7" x 10" (18 x 25.5 cm) 344 pages, card cover perfectbound. A teaching guide is included.
