Japanese

Description:

An introductory Japanese text which covers all you need for basic Japanese in 20 lessons. Includes vocabulary lists and a dictionary of the words used in the text, plus an introduction to writing Hiragana and Katakana, the two Japanese phonetic scripts. The text is written in romaaji - English letter transcriptions - so you don't need to read Japanese to use this successfully. A good introduction.
