Japanese: The Written Language: Part 1, Volume 1 (Workbook) (Yale Language Series)

3 reviews

Yale University Press, 2005

The best introduction to Katakana available
Japanese: The Written Language, an updated version of Jorden's older Reading Japanese book. It has languished in a field test edition for years, but at last the final version of the book is starting slowly to come out. This book, as the name implies, is 123 pages (plus an associated workbook) devoted entirely to katakana, the syllabery used in Japanese primarily to represent foreign loan ...

Superior conclusion of 3-volume text series.
J.S.L.III, like the preceding two volumes, is designed for learners seeking a thorough foundation in the culturally-appropriate use of Japanese by foreigners (i.e., non-native Japanese) in Japan. In its examples and exercises, it uses authentic "real life" Japanese rather than the artificially contrived sentences so often found in foreign language texts. This text series is definitely not for ...

Good in class, bad for self study
There are a lot of good reviews here and a lot of bad ones, but mainly there are a lot that are far too long to be helpful. If you're discovering JSL for the first time, here is the real story: PEOPLE WHO SHOULD USE JSL: Linguists, smart people, adults, people in intensive language programs with good teachers PEOPLE WHO SHOULD AVOID JSL: 13 year-olds, stupid people, anyone doing ...

Probably the BEST Kanji Study book... with a few flaws
I have purchased quite a few books for kanji study in the past few years and this is probably the best of them all. I like the way the book only shows you kanji used in sample sentences only after you have learned them, which effectively gets you used to reading kanji pretty often, without the stress of random new kanji. All examples are well presented and easy to absorb. It also shows how the ...

Excellent Textbook
I've found this book to be extremely helpful to learn the spoken part of the Japanese language, but only because I've been using it as a textbook in college. The book provides good explanations and everything in the book is taught in a very logical order, but you do need to use it with the supplemental audio tapes in order to really learn. Another important thing is that you should be trying to ...
