Excellent self study textbook
This is a self study Japanese Language text that does exactly what it says it will do. You are expected to figure out what the text hints toward. You are not spoon feed the language. By figuring it out for your self it is more deeply learned. It is HARD for sure, but effective. I have learned 15 different languages based on texts for Complete.... language and it really works. Again this is self study, you are expected to look up almost everything yourself. You will need to access Google Translator (free) and make sense of the language with minimal prompts. You are your own tutor. You learn the language and about its culture. Great books! Buy it! Use it! Learn!
