Comment: This book has already been loved by someone else. It MIGHT have some wear and tear on the edges, have some markings in it, or be an ex-library book. Over-all it is still a good book at a great price! (if it is supposed to contain a CD or access code, that may be missing)

Guide to Elusive Japanese Idioms

By Joshua A. Kirby on February 8, 2000

Format: Paperback

Foreign Japanese speakers know that some Japanese idioms are beyond comparison to their home languages. This book explains the Japanese idioms and finds closely equivalent English idioms for comparison and to aid your memorization. The Kanji sentence is written, and then a romaji pronunciation follows so you can understand the readings of the Kanji. Very handy, especially for those who read Japanese novels (shosetsu), Manga, or textbooks.

A very cool book

By J. FELLA VINE VOICE on May 26, 2000

Format: Paperback Verified Purchase

I am an intermediate japanese student and this book was a welcome and fresh new way to learn some japanese. The first thing that struck me from thumbing through the book was just how many idioms we use every day but don't realize what they are! I only got this book a couple days ago and can already see its going to be critical for letting my japanese sound more natural and really blend in. I definately recommend it. It even has kanji and romaji so you can read it no matter what. Just to give you an idea of the common phrases we use that are dealt with in the book : cat got your tongue, stormed out of the room, be a fly on the wall, get your goat, tough as nails, etc. Hope you get the idea. enjoy it!
