To give you the best possible preperation for the JLPT N4, this book contains the same 5 types of questions as the JLPT itself.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBecoming used to distinctive sounds - Sometimes it is hard to distinguish similar sounds. The small っ and ゃ, ゅ and ょ are some examples of sounds that can easily be misheard. But remember that going to the びよういん and going to the びょういん are completely different!  This chapter teaches you techniques useful to reduce misheard words like listening to accents and intonation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVerbal expression skills training - This chapter teaches you the importance of context. Even if you misheard or didn't understand a word, ideally the context it was said in tells you the meaning. While this may sound hard at first, there are techniques that help you improve comprehend context better.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick response skills training - Conversation includes both listening and speaking. This chapter is about practicing speed. After you listen to somebody talking, your brain takes time to process the information. Ideally, it only takes a fraction of a second to process all the information, so you can answer right away. This chapter teaches you how to process information and respond to it faster.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTask-based comprehension skills training - You will learn how to process information from longer segments in this chapter. Listening to and understanding a whole conversation, not just a sentence, can be tough, especially if you have to find the solution to the problem presented yourself.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKey point comprehension skills training - Sometimes it is enough to understand the key point a sentence or conversation is about. It is not always necessary to understand every single words. This chapter teaches you techniques to better understand how to find the relevant information.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral outline comprehension skills training - Lastly, this chapter teaches not just what a person is saying, but what their intention is. Words and meanings don't always match, the word \"ok\" generally has a positive meaning, but can also be used in a negative or refusing way by saying \"it's ok\". Obviously, catching the right meaning of a word is important, which is why this chapter is included in the book.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMock test - After you mastered all the different techniques introduced in this book, it is time to see how you would do in the real exam. The mock test uses questions very similar to those in the actual JLPT N4 to add another layer of preparation for you.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended for you if :\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou want to prepare specially for the JLPT N4.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou want to familiarize yourself with techniques on how to understand spoken Japanese better and the different dimensions listening comprehensions has.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdditional information :\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePages: 63\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLanguage: Introduction in English, but all chapters Japanese only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes: Answer key, 2 CDs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAlso available in the same series :\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/omgjapan.com\/products\/new-kanzen-master-jlpt-n4-grammar\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"New Kanzen Master JLPT N4: Grammar\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eNew Kanzen Master JLPT N4: Grammar\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/omgjapan.com\/products\/new-kanzen-master-jlpt-n4-reading-comprehension\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"New Kanzen Master JLPT N4: Reading Comprehension\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eNew Kanzen Master JLPT N4: Reading Comprehension\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eNew Kanzen Master JLPT N4: Kanji (coming November 2018)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","published_at":"2015-01-08T18:50:00","created_at":"2018-04-25T18:07:09","vendor":"Three A Network","type":"Language","tags":["beginner","blackfriday","grammar","intermediate","japanese language","Japanese Level_Beginner","JLPT Level_N4","jlpt2023","jlptr","jlptr10","N4","new","printed-matter","Product Type_Textbook","Sakura2019","Series_Kanzen Master","Subject_Grammar","textbook","Vendor_Three A Network"],"price":2149,"price_min":2149,"price_max":2149,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":true,"all_variant_ids":[7243511758893],"variants":[{"id":7243511758893,"product_id":588927205421,"product_handle":"new-kanzen-master-jlpt-n4-listening-comprehension","title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"9784883197637","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"image_id":null,"available":true,"name":"New Kanzen Master JLPT N4: Listening Comprehension - Default Title","options":["Default Title"],"price":2149,"weight":400,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":-752,"inventory_management":null,"inventory_policy":"deny","inventory_in_cart":0,"inventory_remaining":-752,"incoming":false,"next_incoming_date":null,"taxable":true,"barcode":"9784883197637"}],"available":true,"images":["\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/n4l.png?v=1571438786","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/shin_kanzen_chokai_n4_002.jpg?v=1583915806","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/shin_kanzen_chokai_n4_003.jpg?v=1583915811","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/shin_kanzen_chokai_n4_007.jpg?v=1583915818","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/shin_kanzen_chokai_n4_008.jpg?v=1583915826","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/shin_kanzen_chokai_n4_014.jpg?v=1583915838","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/shin_kanzen_chokai_n4_015.jpg?v=1583915845","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/shin_kanzen_chokai_n4_017.jpg?v=1583915853","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/shin_kanzen_chokai_n4_018.jpg?v=1583915861"],"featured_image":"\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/n4l.png?v=1571438786","options":["Title"],"url":"\/products\/new-kanzen-master-jlpt-n4-listening-comprehension"}
