Publisher's summary

Looking to step up your Japanese before that big trip next year?

Are you getting prepared for an interview with a recruiter in Tokyo?

Maybe you’re tired of reading the subtitles on the latest anime!

This is the audiobook for you.

No language is easy to learn without practicing - even if you know all of the rules and have watched the videos - you’ll still have trouble. Diving into interesting material (such as stories) can be the difference between mastering a language and never leaving the basic level.

For this reason, we have created another Japanese short stories for beginners title to ensure you can acquire even more learning in this wonderful language that has opened up so many doors for hobbyists, professionals, and travelers alike!

Gain vocabulary that will help you better enjoy your shows and video games, meet interesting people and even land you the Japanese job of your dreams with our 20 easy-to-listen and entertaining new stories!

How Japanese Short Stories for Beginners works:

  • The audiobook consists of 20 sections: Each with a funny, interesting and/or thought-provoking story based on real-life situations, allowing you to learn a lot about the culture.
  • The summaries follow each story - a synopsis in Japanese and in English of what you just listened to, both to review the lesson and for you to see if you understood what the tale was about. Use them if you’re having trouble.
  • At the end of those summaries, you’ll be provided with lists of the most relevant vocabulary involved in the lesson, as well as slang and sayings that you may not have understood at first glance! Don’t get lost trying to understand or pronounce it all, either, as all of the vocabulary words are Romanized for your ease of learning and pronunciation!
  • Finally, you’ll be provided with a set of tricky questions in Japanese, allowing you the chance to prove that you learned something in the story. Whether it’s true or false, or if you’re doing the single-answer questions, don’t worry if you don’t know how to solve them - we will provide the answers immediately after, but no cheating!

You are closer than ever to mastering the Japanese language - with these stories, you will breeze through the beginner level of Japanese like you were born to learn it!

Agonizingly slow

So far, the material appears excellent, however the book arrived in terrible shape. It's also a little challenging to write in.

Would return if I could

I purchased this ultimate beginners guide in an effort to learn Japanese, however after the third session, they start giving pointless information about the categorization of the language and the benefits of studying it.

Useless info.

Even for a novice studying Japanese, this audio session is agonizingly slow, which is a shame because I wanted to enjoy it. The result is disappointing.

Interesting and fun

What a great way of learning Japanese! I barely even felt like I was studying. I found the stories very entertaining which motivated me to keep listening. Keep up the great work, thank you!
