While the title is somewhat misleading, the book speaks for itself when it comes to understanding the logic behind kanji. In a way it uses the same principles used in the Heisic method to learn kanji. Why grill your brain memorizing like a coke ladden parakeet 2610 incoherent scribblings when you can simply understand where the easier kanji drawings come from and then add 1 1 to quickly learn harder kanji? Sure, it's still a titanic feat to memorize all of them, but you'll retain the information a lot easier and you'll even have a lot of fun. I have actually been to Japan on two occasions and enjoyed spotting different licence plates on the streets and knowing which prefecture they were issued. Yes, this book carries peculiar tidbits of knowledge you would never think of when you visit Japan as a tourist. One of the handy things that I learned from this book when I visited Japan was to understand how cities divide neighborhoods. Ditch the street name out the door and memorize those ward kanji quickly. They surely came in handy when I traveled by taxi in Kyoto late at night and located my hotel after recognizing the kanji thanks to this booklet. Does the book cover all of the kanji? No it doesn't. It only covers around the first 200 of them. However if you use it alongside the Heisig books, you could get a useful headstart without feeling overwhelmed. I love to read this book over and over again. Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
This is the quickest way to effectively learn written Japanese. Japanese characters, called kanji, often intimidate potential students of the language with their complex and mysterious appearance. Read Japanese Today is a comprehensible and story-like approach to an often difficult language. Intended for people on the go, this book will teach you to recognize and read the 400 most commonly used Japanese kanji characters. Completely revised and expanded and featuring 25 percent more kanji than previous editions, Read Japanese Today is a fun way to demystify the beautiful Japanese language. Far from being complex and mysterious, Japanese kanji are actually a simple and fascinating pictographic system, easily understood and readily mastered. With the approach used in this easy-to-read, entertaining book, you'll soon be able to recognize and read more than 400 kanji, whether or not you have any knowledge of Japanese grammar or the spoken language. The kanji characters stick in your mind thanks to an engaging text and illustrations that show how each character developed and what it represents. The description for each kanji explains its origin, its modern meaning, and how it is pronounced. Many examples of everyday usage are included. Read Japanese Today also includes: A brief history of the Japanese writing system. Explanations for how the parts of each kanji are related to the whole.
