Features: The New Japanese Grammar Course is a modern Japanese grammar textbook written for Japanese major students in colleges and universities. It can also be used for self-study by Japanese learners and as a reference for Japanese professionals. The book is divided into nine chapters. Chapter 1 is "Introduction to Japanese," and the remaining eight chapters comprehensively introduce the morphology and syntax of modern Japanese. The book systematically includes two sets of exercises: Set 1, [Practice Questions], are distributed at the end of each chapter and section, with "Reference Answers" provided at the end of the book for self-study reference; Set 2, [Exercises for Outside Class], are comprehensive exercises organized by chapter (with Chapter 7, "Particles," organized by section), available for readers to choose from. The book strives to incorporate the latest theories and research findings in the field of Japanese grammar. Without compromising the grammatical system, it provides detailed explanations and examples for some more difficult grammatical phenomena, catering to the practical needs of Chinese students. Especially in the sections on auxiliary verbs and particles, words that the authors deem necessary to distinguish in terms of meaning and usage are appropriately analyzed and compared. For some key analytical content, separate [Reference] sections are provided for detailed explanations. All example sentences in the book are selected from well-regarded domestic and international publications and dictionaries to help readers master authentic Japanese grammar.
