Beginner level Japanese classes tend to focus on grammar and the polite "desu-masu" form. However, there is a large gap between textbooks and actual conversations, and conversational expressions are often not sufficiently covered, so students who complete the beginner levels still lack the ability to communicate with native Japanese speakers. This book provides a focused study of sentence patterns that are most commonly used in conversation, while making sure you understand the characteristics and patterns of spoken Japanese. Study sample conversations to get a firm understanding of the meaning and use of sentence patterns, while also using the accompanying CD to acclimate your ears and mouth. The repetition of basic sentence patterns helps build the basic skills of conversation. Includes English and Chinese translations.
