Write now! Kanji for beginners.
Thursday, March 18th, 2010Although I’ve started learning kanji some months ago, I must admit, I slacked. But with the regular Japanese classes that I am attending, I started doing kanji again. I have the kanji & kana revised edition by Hadamitzky & Spahn, but it was a bit too boring, a good reference book though, but boring for me. Cause all I did was just writing the characters down without using them in context. So I went and borrowed a book at a Japanese library here in my city. The book, “Write now! Kanji for beginners.” Now this book is different.
The book introduces you to 323 kanji characters which includes those that are tested in JLPT level 4 & 3. It is divided into chapters and each chapter there are about a dozen or so kanjis. They would first start introducing the characters with the history or the development of each character i.e from pictographs to the current character form. I think this way it sticks better in your memory. At the end of every chapter there will be tests or exercises where you can practice the kanjis. Practically using them in contexts of everyday words that you use in Japanese.
For a preview of this book you can check it on google book here.
