4.0 out of 5 stars
better than the textbook,
By Candace (St. Paul, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Supplementary Grammar Notes to "an Introduction to Modern Japanese" Part 1: Lessons 1-15 (Spiral-bound)
I used this workbook while I was taking Japanese and found it extremely helpful. It laid out grammatical features in a helpful, organized manner by explaining what they mean and then giving a variety of examples. Along with grammer, it gives information on common phrases, particles (including a very handy cheat section in the back), and counters. I used this more than the textbook. For me, the textbook was confusing and too advanced for a beginner at times, but the suppliment helped bring everything together. I gave the book 4 stars because there were some errors in the introduction of grammatical features that should be fixed, but they are minor errors and can be figured out by looking at the examples. I am studying abroad this spring and this book, along with the second suppliment, are deffinately getting packed! I highly recommend this book!

Useful Companion to Mizutani Textbook,

This review is from: Supplementary Grammar Notes to "an Introduction to Modern Japanese" Part 1: Lessons 1-15 (Spiral-bound)
I have been using Simon's Notes as intended: to clarify the key vocabulary and grammatical points in each chapter of the popular textbook by the Mizutanis. I find it to be well-organized, salient, and lucidly and concisely written. The Notes can also serve as a standalone textbook, as it typically provides several examples for each teaching point. Early lessons use the kana script and romanization, while the kanji script is only introduced later on. Unlike the textbook proper, it does not provide exercises.All vocabulary items are conveniently listed in an index and glossary at the end. In short, a worthy companion to the Osamu text.

Useful and excellent for review,
By Bill Mak "Bill" (Kyoto, Japan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Supplementary Grammar Notes to "an Introduction to Modern Japanese" Part 1: Lessons 1-15 (Spiral-bound)
I used this note when I did my 1st year Japanese MANY YEARS ago. It was very helpful as the textbook was quite tough. My advice to all beginners is that do at least 2 years Japanese if you can and spend a year in Japan. Otherwise, doing just one year Japanese would mean that you would forget it very soon and the time was completely wasted. The text and the two notebooks (1-15;16-30) cover the basic grammar of the language.
