Each Kanji Match Game is a set of 18 / 32 Kanji (= 36 / 64 cards) and introduces Kanji of different topics (usually only Jy Kanji p ). It is extremely interesting to check the meanings of the Jy Kanji to get a deeper understanding of the Japanese cultural background: So many Kanji about the nature (e.g. 'water' or 'mountains'), money, war or politics, culture, food. Once, being able to remember the Kanji you are ready to try our Kanji Sudoku (by topics or shape).

Kanji Practice333 Kanji-in-a-DayMany years of educational research unveiled a stunning fact: Chinese characters are traditionally introduced by their contextual meanings instead of their shape. And this considerably slowed down the language acquisition process. This course book offers a new approach to writing and learning Chinese characters (Kanji in the Japanese language, Hanzi in the Chinese language). By arranging the Kanji in small groups of similar shape on tracing sheets your learning performance will be increased. Our brain really loves motoric reinforcement while learning through writing practice. Little numbers attached to some strokes are explaining the correct stroke order and writing direction. In contrast to all other educational resources the numbers will only be displayed where necessary as your feeling of the correct writing and stroke order will grow from page to page. Readings (or pronunciation) are given both: in Japanese kana and transliteration (Hepburn system). CAPITALS and katakana are used for on-readings (Chinese origin), hiragana for kun-readings (Japanese origin). If you are totally new to the Japanese language, please make use of additional resources and concentrate on writing and meanings while using this course book. Use only one line of the tracing sheet per kanji and training cycle - repeating of the readings and meanings of the Kanji will help you to kill practice time :-) If in doubt how to write a Kanji please use your experience: When there is no number displayed, the stroke order and writing is as you have previously learned (assuming that you started this course book from the very beginning). Two printed fonts of each Kanji are displayed to help understand the small differences in their appearance especially when handwriting is concerned. For more detailed information about each Kanji please refer to Kanji & Kana using the reference number at the right hand side. Kanji & Kana is a comprehensive guide to the reading and writing of the Japanese language, providing all information needed to master basic characters (kanji) and the syllabaries (kana).

No big deal, no long explanations - just print out this eBook and get your (soft) pencils ready. Please feel free to contact the author for feedback or to write a review - at least spread the word to help other students of the Japanese and Chinese language to save practice time. Thank you for downloading this eBook.
