About this listen

If you need to know the key differences between polite and friendly Japanese, then pay attention!

Real Japanese is a blend of short stories, key phrases, and language learning tips to get you started in Japanese. It also shows you the key differences between formal and everyday Japanese, which is a game changer and completely lacking from most Japanese language books.

If you are living in Japan, or plan on travelling to Japan for a trip, this book will help you break down the language and culture into the real and everyday essentials. It will help you lay a strong foundation for fluency, as opposed to textbook knowledge without good communication skills.

Inside the Real Japanese audiobook, you will discover:

  • Understanding friendly versus polite Japanese.
  • Hear all the phrases read by a native Japanese speaker.
  • The key phrases you’ll need in Japan.
  • Key concepts underlying the Japanese culture.
  • How to read some key Kanji (in the accompanying pdf).
  • Proven strategies for easy language learning.

The author has lived in Japan for over 20 years, and has worked in translation for some of Japan's top companies. He passed the Japanese proficiency test (level one) in just two years using the methods outlined in this book.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
