Features: This book features short, practical, natural, and comprehensive sentences. Each sentence is marked with Pinyin according to Chinese pronunciation rules, and the characters are annotated with Kana. Even if you haven’t studied Japanese for a day, as long as you have some basic knowledge of Pinyin, you can boldly pronounce them aloud following the phonetic marks. At the end of each chapter, there are some useful tips for interacting or hosting Japanese guests, which can help you avoid embarrassing situations in front of them, enhance your reputation, or establish your image. The book has the following characteristics: First, the sentences are short, practical, and natural, making them easy to remember and speak, ensuring the other party understands quickly. Second, the content is comprehensive, meaning you can find almost anything you want to express in this book. Third, each sentence is marked with Pinyin according to Chinese pronunciation rules, and the characters are annotated with Kana. Even if you haven’t studied Japanese for a day, as long as you have some basic knowledge of Pinyin, you can boldly pronounce them aloud following the phonetic marks. Of course, if you already know Kana, you can read them according to the Kana. In Japanese, there is a Romanization system that looks exactly like Chinese Pinyin and is used to transcribe Kana. However, due to differences in pronunciation between some letters and some combinations that may be unfamiliar to those who haven’t learned a foreign language, this book has made some adjustments to this phonetic method. We believe this will make Japanese more approachable and easier to learn for most Chinese people.
