In this book, we have collected 700 useful phrases that go beyond the standard sayings used in daily life and allow you to precisely convey your thoughts and feelings, in order to enrich your communications with Japa nese people. It can be used for practice on both a grammatical a nd functi on- al level. Parts 1 and 2 begin by solidifying the basics of conversation, such as ad dressing, greeting, thanking, apologizing, inviting, requesting, and so on. Part 3 helps polish your knowledge of grammar, important in order to ex press yourself clearly. Parts 4 and 5 help you practice being successful in society, covering top ics such as shopping, travel, work, hobbies, family, friends, and more. The aim of these chapters is to enable you interact comfortably (confidently) with Japanese people. To give an example, readers will review basic expressi〇ns such as the emergency phrase, "KyCikyCisha 〇 yondekudasai!,z or the phrase for stating their opinion, "Sugoku yokattadesu." As for grammatical knowledge, items such as the usage of "nagara" in "Sumaho 〇 minagara arukuto abunai de- suyo"or the"〜yd to omou"in "Raigetsu, Kyoto e iko to omotteimasu."will be reviewed. Phrases dealing with situations you will want to master, such as talking about shopping or travel, e.g., "Yama ga suki desu ga, umi ni iketara ureshii desu," have been collected in this book. 2 Table of contents The recordings in this book try a new approach, allowing for more effec tive practice. The sentence is spoken slowly at first, then again at a natural speed. We have also in eluded easy-to-understand explanations of how to use the phrases, as well as many natural sample sentences that are unlike what you would find in a traditional textbook. We hope you make good use of these resources. We truly wish for our readers to be able to con fide ntly express them selves when communicating in Japanese, and we hope that this book will help you do that.
