Japanese Reader Collection Volume 1: Hikoichi

Principales opiniones de clientes. Ha surgido un problema al filtrar las opiniones justo en este momento. Vuelva a intentarlo en otro momento. Es muy entretenido, y aprendes mientras lees.

Easy and funny tale explained sentence by sentence. Text can also be read in Japanese without the explanations or translated into English. It's a good way to start. The only problem I see is I can not use the Japanese dictionary. Kindle detects the e-book as an English one, I think because of the English explanations.

Japanese Reader Collection Volume 1: Hikoichi by Clay Boutwell

Tapa blanda Compra verificada. Ver las 3 opiniones. This series is virtually perfect for students of Japanese who have Hiragana and Katakana memorized but know few or none of the Kanji. The stories are from traditional Japanese folklore, which means they're interesting and clever, and most of it is presented in Hiragana, with Furigana for each Kanji character.

I think there may be some sparse Katakana, but for the most part it's Hiragana. It's not only an excellent way to improve your Kana reading, it's also invaluable for improving vocabulary, something recorded language courses like Pimsleur and Rosetta sorely miss. Reading new words in context of an interesting story assists greatly in visualizing and remembering them. In this sense the formatting of the book too is excellent: Every page has the Kana at the top with Furigana above whatever Kanji characters appear, and phrase-by-phrase translations in Romaji English phonetic at the bottom of the page.

Which means you can check a given word's translation instantly - a big, big help when you're using an e-reader like a Kindle or Fire, because you're thereby spared the necessity of doing endless page-flips to get to some general glossary located far from the page you're on. It's right there where you need it, but below everything else so you don't "cheat" with inadvertent glances while you read.

  4. Plant-Fungal Pathogen Interaction: A Classical and Molecular View;
  5. In the third volume of this series the author inexplicably omits the Furigana completely, which makes that third book and presumably those subsequent to it, useless to anyone without a large number of Kanji memorized. I'm currently at something like 28, total. Hopefully that odd decision will be corrected, but this and Volume 2 are indispensable for beginning-to-intermediate Japanese students looking to move from "stare-at-each-character" reading to fluid sight-reading of Kana and, eventually, Kanji.

    Just an excellently-conceived and -executed series with clever, interesting short stories.

    Punku Maincha- A Nepali Story in Japanese- Story Reading By Astha Tuladhar ネパールの民話

    This is a very good book for beginners, and by beginners I mean those who are familiar with hiragana, katakana I more than kanji. Why did I mention kanji? Simply because when I started to learn the Japanese language, I tried to read it and it became a disaster for my self-confidence. So I waited for some time and studied hard so today I can open a book which claims to be for beginners and not to fall into depression when I realize that I can read it at once.

    Stories in this book are very lightly written, and if you had mentioned knowledge you will find unknown words, but you won't be so much disappointed in yourself - especially because you can mark those words, and study them after. Perfect for beginning and upper beginning students of Japanese.

    This affordable Japanese reader contains four complete stories of a clever and mischievous young man, Hikoichi. The link to the MP3s is found on the last page. Read--in Japanese--how the wise and young Hikoichi shows his smarts with these four short stories in Japanese. Yes, you can read real Japanese—even if you are just starting out in Japanese.
