Japanese Kanji for JLPT N5: Master the Japanese Language Proficiency Test N5

For Beginners of the Japanese language.

Are you a beginner in Japanese and would like to improve your reading comprehension? Taking the Japanese Language Proficiency Test is a great way to set a goal for yourself, and goals help with motivation. Motivation acted upon nearly always leads to success.

Whether you are planning to take the Japanese Language Proficiency Test N5 (the easiest level) or would just like to improve your reading ability, this book will help.

This book offers three ways to practice reading Japanese for the N5 test:

1) 短文（80文字） short paragraphs with about 80 characters followed by one or more questions for comprehension.

2) 中分 (250文字) Mid-length paragraphs with about 250 characters followed by one or more questions for comprehension

3) 情報検索 In this section, you will be asked to extract necessary information using short text, graphs, or other visuals (such as timetables, schedules, or pamphlets).

200 sound files for every example sentence found in the book

Japanese Grammar for English Speakers

We highly recommend reading each example sentence several times—even dozens of times. Learning isolated vocabulary may be useful, but learning vocabulary within a natural context (sentence or phrase) while absorbing how the grammar is more efficient.

While you read (paperback, tablet, or computer), you may want to use your smartphone to play the sound files.
We assume you are using a textbook for your regular studies and have some (if only a touch) familiarity with very basic Japanese grammar. If not, we highly recommend getting a textbook to keep your learning structured before proceeding with this book. At the very minimum, to use this book, you must have a solid knowledge of hiragana.

Japanese Sentence Patterns for JLPT N5: Master the Japanese Language Proficiency Test N5

Includes FREE Sound Files and an Anki Flashcard Deck (download link found on the last page)

Whether you are planning to take the Japanese Language Proficiency Test N5 or just would like to improve your understanding of Japanese, this book will greatly help you.

Working through sentences is an excellent way to improve your overall understanding of Japanese. Doing so offers multiple benefits, including improved reading comprehension, reading speed, vocabulary, grammar, sentence structure, and listening skills.

This book presents 100 Japanese sentences with JLPT N5 level grammar and vocabulary. It breaks down all the vocabulary and then quizzes you with fill-in-the-blank and translation exercises.

* 100 N5 Level (Upper Beginner) Japanese Sentences

* Completely defined and broken down

* 100 Sound Files (Free download link found on the last page)

* Fill-in-the-Blank and Translation exercises to thoroughly practice the sentences

* Anki Flashcard Deck (Free download link found on the last page)

HOW TO USE THIS BOOK

We will tackle the 100 sentences in groups of 5 each. Going through a chapter (5 sentences) a day means you'll finish the book in 20 days—less than a month.

Read each sentence, study the literal and more natural English translation, and learn any unknown vocabulary. Listen to the sound files for these five sentences and practice shadowing (repeating or speaking with the speaker). If you find the sentences in this section too easy, start with the exercises in the next section and then come back to look up any unknown word.

Next comes a fill in the blank exercise. Choose the most logical choice for the missing word in the sentence. The answers and explanation is found at the end of each chapter.

Lastly, translate the sentences either in your head or on paper.

The goal is not to sprint through all the sentences, but rather to digest each one slowly, gaining a deep understanding of the meaning, sentence structure, and vocabulary involved.
