  Japanese textbook curse

  04.11.07 | Permalink | 5 Comments

  I’m trying to better myself by studying Japanese further past level three and I’ve come across a big hurdle.
  When I studied for level three, all the grammar textbooks had English explanations. Now for level 2, every single textbook I can find has EVERYTHING in Japanese. This includes meanings and explanations.

  I got the results of the JLPT test I took in December. And I passed.

  I wrote about the tools I used to study JLPT before. I can’t recommend this book Japanese Language Proficiency Test: Grammar Exercises Level 3 highly enough. The practice exercises in it were harder than [...]

  More tales of telephone woe

  01.02.07 | Permalink | 1 Comment

  We get a lot of cold calls at our house here in Japan. Far more anyway than I ever did in England. On our phone, we can see what the number is and if we don’t recognise it or it’s a local number, Reiko will tell me to answer it.

  There`s been a lot said about [...]

  I`m applying for the Japanese Language Proficiency Test which takes place in December 3rd. I`m going for level 3 out of 4 which is advanced Beginner. After 2 years in Japan, you`d think I`d be better than that by now but I am naturally lazy.
