As long as you know kana, you can jump in and begin building on your Japanese right away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eJapanese Graded Readers (JGR) Level 0\u003c\/i\u003e is designed for the ambitious newcomer. It utilizes a vocabulary of 350 words, beginner-level kanji (coupled with furigana), and verb conjugations including ~desu, ~masu, present tense, past tense, and question form. JGR is challenging but not overwhelming. Each word, sentence and carefully constructed paragraph is chosen to help you steadily improve your Japanese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the stories in Japanese Graded Readers Level 0 - Vol. 1:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"line-height: 1.4;\"\u003eThe 6 stories in JGR Level 0 offer insights into Japanese culture as with the story \u003ci\u003eDaizu\u003c\/i\u003e, which explores the myriad of ways soybeans are prepared and enjoyed in Japan, or \u003ci\u003eKimurake no Mainichi “Ichiro, Gakkou De\u003c\/i\u003e” which follows Ichiro, a down-on-his-luck Charlie Brown-type, through a day in the life of a Japanese schoolboy. Each page is beautifully illustrated with pictures that reinforce the vocabulary.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe language of JGR is natural and controlled - the kind of Japanese that comes up in daily life - and the difficulty level from book to book is graduated by complexity of vocabulary and grammar structures, as well as the total number of words per book.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen picking up your first JGR, we encourage you to forgo the dictionary. Try to skip words and phrases that you don't understand and simply keep on reading. Their meanings will become apparent from the context and illustrations, and your memory retention will be all the better for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany consider reading to be the most challenging core competency of learning Japanese. There are always new words, expressions and kanji to absorb and remember. But research has also shown that students who become proficient readers of Japanese improve the other core competencies - writing, speaking and listening - at a faster rate than those who do not. If your goal is to master Japanese, the JGR series will help get you there.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2014-04-10T21:46:00","created_at":"2014-04-10T21:46:56","vendor":"ASK","type":"Language","tags":["beginner","blackfriday","graded reader","japanese language","Japanese Level_Beginner","jlptr","jlptr10","literature","printed-matter","Product Type_Graded Reader","reading","Sakura2019","Series_Japanese Graded Readers","Subject_Reading"],"price":3339,"price_min":3339,"price_max":3339,"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":[676493105],"variants":[{"id":676493105,"product_id":286760893,"product_handle":"japanese-graded-readers-level-0-vol-1-includes-cd","title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"9784872177114","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"image_id":null,"available":true,"name":"Japanese Graded Readers Level 0 - Vol. 1 (includes CD) - Default Title","options":["Default Title"],"price":3339,"weight":312,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":-1049,"inventory_management":null,"inventory_policy":"deny","inventory_in_cart":0,"inventory_remaining":-1049,"incoming":false,"next_incoming_date":null,"taxable":true,"barcode":"9784872177114"}],"available":true,"images":["\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/01.png?v=1585299360","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/japanese-graded-readers-level-0-vol-1-includes-cd_4018.jpeg?v=1585299380","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/japanese-graded-readers-level-0-vol-1-includes-cd_3133.jpeg?v=1585299456","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/japanese-graded-readers-level-0-vol-1-includes-cd_836.jpeg?v=1585299472","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/japanese-graded-readers-level-0-vol-1-includes-cd_9281.jpeg?v=1585299570","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/japanese-graded-readers-level-0-vol-1-includes-cd_1220.jpeg?v=1585299605","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/japanese-graded-readers-level-0-vol-1-includes-cd_5737.jpeg?v=1585299657","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/japanese-graded-readers-level-0-vol-1-includes-cd_9754.jpeg?v=1585299681","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/japanese-graded-readers-level-0-vol-1-includes-cd_3227.png?v=1585299737","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/japanese-graded-readers-level-0-vol-1-includes-cd_8924.png?v=1585299775","\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/japanese-graded-readers-level-0-vol-1-includes-cd_825.png?v=1585299806"],"featured_image":"\/\/omgjapan.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/01.png?v=1585299360","options":["Title"],"url":"\/products\/japanese-graded-readers-level-0-vol-1-includes-cd"}
