With the increase in the number of foreigners coming to Japan, and the spread of Japanese language learners abroad, the demand for Japanese language study has become more diverse. An an increasing number of learners are starting with absolutely no or almost no experience. Yet, beginner level education often progresses at a fairly fast pace on a track laid out from the JLPT N5 level to the N4 level, which is quite difficult for many students. The primary goal of this book is to study at the so-called "N6 level" as a first step towards a smooth progression to the beginner level. This book will help you build a foundation while familiarizing yourself with the basic structure and characteristics of the Japanese language.
