Yonde Miyo~! Volume 1 is a beginner Japanese reader written in hiragana and basic kanji, with furigana on every kanji and native audio, an easy first step before longer graded readers. The code printed in the back unlocks the stories in the free Makoto Japanese Explorer app for iPhone, iPad and Android, where you can tap any word for its reading and meaning. NOTE: The digital version is found in the Beri- Beri- Shoshinsha bundle.  Have you only recently learned hiragana but need practice? Or perhaps, your hiragana is no problem, but you want to build your hiragana and kanji reading comprehension? This new collection of stories is here to the rescue! Read real Japanese—beginner level but not boring Japanese! You won't find the Japanese version of Dick and Jane, but you will find stories written for adults. Enjoy reading flash fiction, super short essays, and funny stories of common mistakes made by learners of Japanese.Best of all, the only requirement is that you can read hiragana and have a very basic understanding of Japanese. Vocabulary and grammar will be defined and explained. The format is a little different from our other more advanced readers. The idea is for the reader to read the entire story three times. Each page will have a sentence or two in hiragana (with spaces between words for you to see “words” instead of syllables) at the top and that same content in full Japanese (with furigana—small hiragana over kanji) at the bottom. The middle will have the glossary and grammatical explanations. Lastly, the story is presented in Japanese without furigana. See if you can read it after going through the previous two versions and explanations. If you have just learned hiragana, you may want to listen to the sound file while reading the hiragana section to practice correct pronunciation. If you have studied Japanese a bit longer, you may want to start with the bottom version and take note of the glossary for understanding.The glossary will have the word as it appears in the story, but it will also give the “dictionary” form so you can look the word up further. Having fun while learning a language is a great way to increase motivation. With increased motivation, you are less likely to skip a day's study. A skipped day can quickly become a lost week and then a lost… forever. And so, we hope you will have as much fun reading these stories as we had writing them. This is a physical paperback which will be shipped to you. You'll also receive the digital files for no extra charge immediately after ordering.

Anna Glaid · Batumi, GE · JLPT N5 Bundle ★★★★★ "Every sentence is broken down and explained in easy steps that helps the reader understand the structure of Japanese."

Clay is Lost Slow speed Clay is Lost Natural speed The bundle has 50 stories like this one, each with both recordings, plus everything shown in the images above. Beri- Beri- Shoshinsha → (Literally "very very beginner.") The foundation. It walks you from hiragana through basic grammar, and it includes our full library of beginner graded readers: easy stories to practice what you learn, instead of drilling sentence patterns into a notebook and hoping they stick. JLPT N5 → Takes those fundamentals and sharpens them. Each book covers one part of the exam (vocabulary, grammar, kanji, reading, sentence patterns), so you can target weak spots before you sit it. Even if you never take the JLPT, its levels are one of the clearest ways to measure progress at the beginner stage. (A test on the calendar is a motivator that flashcards aren't.) About the overlap. The grammar and kanji books in each bundle cover similar ground: about 60% of the grammar topics and 80% of the kanji appear in both. But they're built for different jobs. The Beri- Beri- versions teach the language as you'll use it, organized by what's useful in real life; the JLPT N5 versions teach for the test, organized by what the exam asks and how. Same material from two angles, which helps if you care about both everyday Japanese and the exam. 23 eBooks + audio Add to cart

MakotoMagazine #1 * MakotoMagazine #19 * Japanese Sentences: Beginning Phrases * All of the above are exclusive to this bundle except the two Makoto Magazine issues (which are also found in the value bundles Volume 1 and Volume 4) and The Hiragana, the Basics of Japanese book (which is also in our Japanese Reader Collection). The Frank and the Obaasan series is also found in its own, but this is the best value overall. All other titles and worksheets are only found here. All titles include sound files! For beginners of Japanese--even (especially) those just starting out ABOUT THE TITLE The name is a play on two English words plus the Japanese word for "beginner". ベリー beri- sounds like "very" and "berry" and 初心者 shoshinsha means "beginner" in Japanese (see the breakdown of that word below). So, ベリーベリー初心者 (beri- beri- shoshinsha) can mean "very very beginners" or "berry berry beginners." The name isn't particularly meaningful, but it is cute and we like it. :) 🎌 Love this bundle?

Paperback. 144 pages. 7 x 5 inches. -----------------   Our award-winning series moves forward with an all-new selection of 80 kanji geared toward intermediate learners of the language. Upon completion of this and the previous three volumes, students will have learned a total of 320 kanji, enough to prepare them for the advanced levels of the official Japanese Language Proficiency Test. "A brilliant idea!" says Ronald A. Morse, retired professor of Japan Studies at UCLA and the University of Las Vegas, Nevada. "Japanese kanji — the written symbols adapted from Chinese — were originally drawings of images from real life. Japanese comic books and cartoons now provide fresh images to help us learn. Kanji de Manga uses today's manga images to make the kanji learning process fun and easy for otaku of all ages. This is a brilliant approach to learning the language." Each page features its own comic strip, kanji pronunciation guide, stroke order, and English explanations. Created by Glenn Kardy, editor of several volumes in the popular How to Draw Manga series, including Getting Started, the first book of its kind to be used at major universities in the United States (UCLA) and Japan (Waseda). Artwork by Chihiro Hattori, niece of legendary manga artist Eichi Fukui.
