The easy way to learn the Japanese writing system!

In this beginner's workbook, students of Japanese will learn to read and write the Hiragana and Katakana alphabets, as well as 50 basic Kanji characters. A step-by-step approach moves from tracing letters to reading and writing complete words quickly and effectively.

In this comprehensive guide, language learners will find:
  • The 92 Hiragana and Katakana letters
  • 50 Kanji characters
  • Illustrations to help you remember each letter and its associated sound
  • An extensive bidirectional dictionary
  • Hundreds of drills suitable for self-study or classroom use
  • An answer key for all exercises
  • Useful everyday vocabulary and phrases from numbers and colors to food and social media
  • Free downloadable flashcards to help you review what you've learned
  • Online audio recordings by a native speaker to help with pronunciation

Instead of dealing with separate Hiragana and Katakana workbooks, as is common, this comprehensive guide provides an efficient way to learn both with the help of one book.
