Revised Edition: Beginner's Japanese for Everyday Use and Mastery, Beginner 1 Main Text

This comprehensive beginner's textbook aims to develop communication skills using grammar, vocabulary, and expressions from the very beginning of your Japanese language studies. Rather than beginning practical practice after completing basic Japanese grammar, this textbook teaches students to acquire the grammar, vocabulary, and expressions needed for specific everyday situations by thinking about them as if they were themselves and talking about real-life situations. Learners will learn conversations in familiar situations and topics (self-introductions, school, daily life, inviting friends, etc.) along with the basic grammar, expressions, and vocabulary needed for those situations. Grammar points are presented in order from easy to difficult, allowing students to learn effortlessly within the natural flow of conversation. Important grammar points are also repeatedly covered in various contexts. Audio (mp3 data) is available for download or streaming from our website.
