Writing Japanese with ease

Kanji stroke-by-stroke

Inside, you will learn the fundamentals of writing the characters of traditional Japan, borrowed from Chinese (Kanji).

The book lists each Kanji with its radical, its number of strokes, the different pronunciations of the character, and - of course - its meaning. For development of your writing skills, the stroke-by-stroke character lay-out will be very useful, teaching you the rules of writing Kanji.

Workbook

This writing workbook is designed to help you learn to write kana (hiragana and katakana) - the characters that represent phonetic syllables in the Japanese writing system. To allow you to learn as easily as possible, the characters are introduced so they progress in difficulty (from 1 stroke to 4 strokes). The grids for writing practice also guide you step by step, starting with larger squares and gradually decreasing in size. There are additional exercises to extend your learning, plus helpful tips and interesting information about kana.
