About this product

Product Information

Japanese for Busy People is, as the title suggests, a concise course for busy students who want to learn natural, spoken Japanese as effectively as possible in a limited amount of time. This new Kana Version has been adapted and redesigned to reflect current thinking on Japanese-as-a-second-language education. Romanized Japanese, often criticized as being the main obstacle to accurate and fluent pronunciation of the spoken language, has been omitted in favor of native hiragana and katakana scripts. Learning kana from the very beginning will also facilitate a smooth and fast transition to kanji study. Enough vocabulary and grammar have been provided to enable the learner to communicate in uncomplicated adult Japanese, without having to memorize excessive amounts of vocabulary and language patterns that are not immediately useful. Exercises and Quiz sections also appear in kana to reinforce written and oral comprehension as well as production skills. Japanese for Busy People has been prepared under the guidance of a working group of experienced Japanese language instructors who reviewed and tested the material in an authentic classroom environment. The Kana Version of Japanese for Busy People 1 is the ideal textbook for anyone who wishes to learn real, natural, conversational Japanese and actually communicate with native Japanese speakers. It also provides a solid foundation and a valuable resource for those who would like to go further with their study of the Japanese language. This new Kana Version includes: * new introduction explaining how to use the text at home or school * new, larger, and easier-to-read typography * new, classroom-friendly, eye-catching page design * clear, concise explanations of how the language works * full English-Japanese/Japanese-English glossaries.

It is the older version. But still good for learning the language.

Japanese for Busy People
The reason I decide to buy it is becuase it contains many different topics which suite situations people will face to. For example, recently I use the sentences as samples to make a reservation for Japanese Hotel, and it was successful. I am very happy to have this book and also recommend this book to everyone who is learning Japanese.
