Features: The Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) Level 3 requires examinees to master a vocabulary of approximately 1,500 words. However, by reviewing test papers over the past ten years, it is evident that the question range in the Kanji and Vocabulary section, aside from reading comprehension, has not exceeded the 1,400 words listed in the "JLPT Test Question Standards." Even when optional answers occasionally include words outside this standard, the correct answer is almost always within the specified range. Therefore, mastering these 1,400 words is crucial. As a result, the vocabulary in this book is carefully selected to stay within the "Test Question Standards." Exercises are categorized by part of speech, allowing readers to clearly understand the vocabulary volume for each part of speech in Level 3 and study with a clear target. Most words are accompanied by explanations and example sentences. However, some Level 3 words have multiple meanings, and this book only explains the most common ones. The question formats are primarily based on the latest test paper styles. However, the Kanji-to-Kana and Kana-to-Kanji sections require learners to practice writing. If you can write them perfectly, what else do you need to worry about? The main features of this study guide are:
1. Corresponds to the new exam syllabus—few similar books on the market.
2. Organized by part of speech—facilitates targeted learning by highlighting strengths and weaknesses.
3. Selectively curated vocabulary—focuses on high-frequency words for practice.
4. Concentrated synonyms—condenses the most common polysemous words.
5. Abundant exercises—each lesson includes a substantial number of simulated practice questions (approximately 1,000 in total). When learning vocabulary, focus should be placed on kun'yomi words, polysemous words, synonymy words, fixed collocations, and those words that Chinese learners often misinterpret based on literal translation.
