Your time is a precious asset. In Practical Japanese Learning, the approach is simple : - You will start talking Japanese from zero without bothering about all the different rules that you are usually told to comprehend when you learn a new language. - You will be explained how to pronounce the different sounds. - You will learn how to make your own sentences based on concrete examples and explanations, by the end of the first chapter. - You will be practicing through translation tests. - You will be provided additional words at the end of the book. The idea is to go as straight to the point as possible, learning through practice should bring you the feeling of making progress sentence after sentence.
