A grammar workbook completely based on A Dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar, a long-running bestseller of Japanese learning books. Companion study tools in the form of PowerPoint® slides help users get even more out of their workbook practices, both in the classroom and in self-study.



Overview

A solid understanding of grammar is a must-have for any language learner, but it takes more to become able to effectively communicate in the target language. Learners need to practice constructing proper sentences based on their knowledge of grammar and using those constructions in real-world situations and natural contexts.



Focused on basic Japanese grammar, this workbook helps users to efficiently gain such practice, whether it be in the class-room or in self-study.





Features

This workbook is based on A Dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar (Seiichi Makino & Michio Tsutsui), a perennial favorite among Japanese language learning texts. It covers grammar items that should be mastered at the elementary level, presenting them in 127 units that provide phased practice progressing from the basics to applied/expansion exercises.

Supplementary study tools in the form of multimedia PowerPoint ® slides are available for all exercises except the reading and listening comprehension practices. The slides provide fun, effective oral practice with their audio, textual, and visual material, helping both classroom and self-study learners to more effectively master basic grammar.

The units are independent of one another, which enables users to focus on practicing just the grammar items they want to master. This workbook is also an effective tool for more advanced learners who need to brush up on rusty points of elementary grammar.
