This book serves as a bridge between the beginner and the intermediate levels, covering the essential expressions of N4/N5 level Japanese.
Sentence patterns are organized by their functions (time, request, change, condition, inference, etc.) so that students can learn them effectively. First, you will be challenged with "Do you know" and "Can you use it?" to check how much you can currently use each pattern and verify whether you are remembering it incorrectly. Next, you will learn actual usage from abundant example sentences and explanations. Finally, you will solve practice problems to confirm your understanding.
In addition, there are illustrations to help you understand situations, a "conjugation table" and "columns" to help you master the sentence patterns, and other features to support your study of sentence patterns. Build up your skills with this book and move on to the intermediate level!
This book includes translations to English, Chinese, and Korean. Additionally, a Vietnamese translation is available as PDF from ALC's Download Center.
