Practical self-teacher of the Japanese language

«Practical self-teacher of the Japanese language» is intended for those who wish to independently master the basics of the Japanese language: its pronunciation, writing, and basic grammar. The approach offered in the «Self-teacher» is based on many years of experience in teaching the Japanese language at Moscow State University. The advantage of this approach is the creation of a solid linguistic foundation based on systematic study of grammatical structures with a relatively small amount of vocabulary and hieroglyphics necessary at the initial stages of language acquisition.

The course material is presented in the most detailed and accessible form. For the convenience of perception, similar grammatical phenomena are grouped together, and theoretical explanations are illustrated with examples. The themes of the texts reflect typical situations of everyday communication, which implies the mastery of the most commonly used vocabulary. Exercises aimed at reinforcing the material covered are provided with an answer key for self-checking.
