En savoir plus sur le livre

This popular Japanese language textbook series is designed for 21st-century students and businesspeople seeking to learn natural, spoken Japanese efficiently. The comprehensive series has been redesigned and updated after a decade, featuring a sleek new design and thematically linked lessons that enhance the learning experience. A CD accompanies the book, providing audio for dialogues and listening exercises. The revised exercises include more comprehension and production tasks, many of which are illustrated for a stimulating experience, with clear purposes stated for each task. The first volume introduces "survival Japanese," focusing on the essential vocabulary and grammar needed to navigate life in Japan, covering about a third of what is typically taught in a first-year course. It also includes cultural notes to deepen the learner’s understanding of Japan and its customs. Available in two formats, the Romanized Version uses romanization throughout, while the Kana Version introduces hiragana and katakana from the start, using only kana. Both versions contain the same content. Additionally, a companion workbook offers a variety of illustrated exercises to help students master the basic sentence patterns presented in the main text.
