Browse By Language: Japanese Chain Method It is needless to say that the complexity of written Japanese is one of the major obstacles to mastering this language. The simplest way of learning kanji characters, by multiple repetitions, may be good enough for Japanese children. But for a foreigner, this simplicity does not justify the enormous time expenditures that are inevitable for one who is not a superman. This leads to the idea of using the advanced methods of sensible memorization. Mnemonics, as such, is an ancient art, but nowadays it is experiencing a rebirth and is becoming more and more popular among students of Japanese. First of all, this concerns the famous system of James Heisig [1-3], though there are books by other authors as well, for example, see [4-7]. The goal of this article is to show that all these disadvantages are caused by the approach which dictates the student to apply mnemonic operations on an isolated character. It would be unfair not to mention any weaknesses of the chain method. ). Since both and

Japanese Log (Language Learning Log) Language Learning Forum I've only been studying Japanese for less than a month, so hopefully participating in this challenging will give me a huge kickstart to learning this notoriously difficult language. I don't know if I will be able to continue for the entire 3 month period, but I'm committed to participating for at least 2 months. So far I've been using the Power Japanese software from Transparent Language along with Pimsleur I, which I've been using passively. I've also just started watching the Let's Learn Japanese series and listening to the beginner's lessons at Japanesepod101.com. Other ways I incorporate Japanese into my life are by watching subtitled anime and trying to read manga in their original language. As for goals, I think I'd like to finish watching all 52 episodes of Let's Learn Japanese, finish up Power Japanese and Pimsleur I, and hopefully get through the entire passive wave of at least the first Assimil volume.

Introduction - KANJIDAMAGE KANJIDAMAGE is the kanji book I wanted to have when I first started studying! This book is for people with a basic knowledge of ひらがな and カタカナ, people who aren't in a class and want to learn on their own, and busy people who don't have time to learn all the formal words or business words. In other words, this book is for average people who maybe have a job or a bunch of college, and can only study an hour a day. I'm one of those people! Finally, it's for people who are fed up with other methods, who are desperate enough to try anything. I try to address all the beginner questions, like, "How do I remember how it's pronounced?" It's like this: Japanese IS pretty hard, but half the problems are the way it is taught. Next time you, the reader, are going batshit about how arbitrary or complex Japanese is, take time and think that maybe the textbook is making it complex. So far, all kanji books have been written by people that are language experts and professors. That's right – I cheated.

Vocabulaire japonais de base par thème - Cours & Documents Vous n'avez pas besoin d'apprendre par coeur le vocabulaire. Lisez-le, recopiez-le, jouez avec, utilisez-le – et il rentrera tout seul. L'écriture des caractères japonais a tout du jeu de rébus. Prenez le temps de lire les encadrés et de tracer les caractères. Rappel : Pour apprendre un verbe japonais, vous devez retenir quatre formes : La première forme (en "U") est la forme simple. La seconde forme (en "MASU") est la forme "MASU". La troisième forme (en "NAI") est la forme négative simple. La quatrième forme (en "TE" ou "DE") est la forme progressive. Ces quatre formes permettent de construire toutes les autres formes. Notez bien qu'un verbe japonais ne change pas de forme en fonction de la personne ou du nombre. Pour apprendre les autres mots, vous n'avez qu'une forme à retenir. Voir (l'état de quelque chose) = MIRU / MIMASU / MINAI / MITE. Je vois le ciel = SORA WO MIMASU. 空を見ます。 MIRU appelle la particule WO pour indiquer ce qui est vu. Regarde le ciel ! C'est le ciel = SORA DESU. 黒い白い
