What You’ll Discover
This Japanese package comprises Pimsleur’s Japanese Levels 1–3. This curriculum starts from scratch, teaching you survival phrases and terminology before moving to a high-intermediate level of speaking and comprehending Japanese.
Every session includes an introductory discussion, isolated vocabulary and structures, and comprehensive practice for all presented language. Pronunciation and understanding are prioritized. You will have acquired experience participating in numerous casual and some formal talks on practical, social, and semiprofessional themes by the end of the program. You’ll be able to compose longer, more complicated phrases, and most importantly, you’ll be understood, even by native speakers who aren’t used to dealing with outsiders.
Japanese Reading and Writing
Chinese characters became commonly utilized in Japan by the 5th century AD. This early script, kanji, produced new literacy but introduced numerous pronunciation issues. To bridge the gap, two new phonetic alphabets, or kana, were developed in the 8th century: hiragana and katakana. Hiragana, together with kanji, is used to express the syllables that compose suffixes and particles – “sounds” in other words – whereas katakana was employed for foreign loan words such as “coffee” or “computer.” In Japan today, the three writing systems are blended, with kanji, hiragana, and katakana frequently occurring in the same phrase.
This curriculum includes sixty reading lessons. You’ll learn to read the hiragana and katakana alphabets, as well as recognize and “read” certain kanji characters from common words, in these classes. Reading Lessons at each level will teach you how to sound out characters and then how to sound out words, phrases, and sentences.
Learning the sounds of each letter individually and in culturally diverse combinations helps your brain to comprehend what you hear in the audio courses from a new and different viewpoint. It’s a potent mix that distinguishes Pimsleur from any other approach on the market.
At the end of Lesson 30, each level includes one hour of recorded Cultural Notes. These Notes are intended to give you a taste of Japanese culture.
The Pimsleur Technique
We make no secret of what makes this potent approach so effective. Paul Pimsleur devoted his career exploring and honing the precise aspects that anybody may utilize to swiftly and simply acquire a language. Among his “secrets” are the following:
The Anticipation Principle
Your brain needs to work hard in the instant between a stimulus and your reaction to come up with the correct term. Having to do this improves retention and helps to solidify the term in your mind.
Essential Vocabulary
Words, phrases, and sentences are chosen based on their use in regular communication. We don’t overload you with information, but instead gradually develop your skill with each class.
Recall with Graduated Intervals
Reminders of new words and structures appear at precisely the right intervals to ensure maximum retention and storage in your long-term memory.
Organic Education
You work on many facets of the language at the same time. We incorporate grammar, vocabulary, rhythm, melody, and intonation into every class, which allows you to experience the language as a living, expressive expression of human culture.
Learning in Context
Research has shown that learning new words in context dramatically accelerates your ability to remember. Every scene in every Pimsleur lesson is set inside a conversation between two people. There are no drills, and no memorization necessary for success.
Active Participation
The Pimsleur Method + active learner participation = success. This method works with every language and every learner who follows it. You gain the power to recall and use what you know, and to add new words easily, exactly as you do in English.
The Japanese Language
Japanese is spoken by about 130 million people, 122 million of whom are in Japan. There are also speakers in the Ryukyu Islands, Korea, Taiwan, parts of the United States, and Brazil. Japanese has many “registers” or levels of politeness. Pimsleur’s Japanese courses will teach you how to speak at a polite register, which is appropriate in virtually any situation you are likely to encounter in Japan.
