Nihongo 500 Mon Beginner Pdf

I recommend 500-mon N5/N4 as a review book after you finish Genki II. Main grammar forms in genki or minna no nihongo beginners 1+2. Then I'll look at one of the major challenges faced by all beginner Japanese learners - the writing system. I've also prepared a special PDF version of the post so you can download it. Borrowed directly from Chinese starting from sometime before 500 AD. 川 (kawa) - river; 山 (yama) - mountain; 門 (mon) - gate.

I’ve written a review of the Nihongo Sou Matome series of books for the. This series promises to help you become better prepared for the JLPT.

I’ve been through many of the books for different levels and I can tell you which ones are worth your time. What is Nihongo Sou Matome? Nihongo Sou Matome is a series of books that each focus on a different aspect of Japanese study. Reading, Grammar, Vocabulary, Kanji, and Listening. There are different levels available that match the levels of the JLPT. N5 through N1.

Should I use the Nihongo Sou Matome books? If you’re just getting started studying for the JLPT, then I do recommend trying this series to help you become familiar with the material you will see on the test. Even though the animal covers are very identifiable and cute, you don’t have to collect them all! In fact, it’s better if you don’t get them all because you might have a hard time focusing on so many books. Choose 1 or 2 and make an effort to study them every day. Nihongo Sou Matome Reading All levels can appreciate the reading books.

I find them to be full of useful formats and vocabulary similar to the real JLPT. Advanced users will probably want to start looking at the “” series of books when it comes to reading comprehension. Preview Nihongo Sou Matome Grammar I cannot really recommend the grammar books of this series because the translations of example sentences and explanations are really poor in English sometimes. I think N5 or N4 levels could be all right with these books, but definitely, choose a different grammar book for N3 and above. Preview Nihongo Sou Matome Vocabulary Preview For the earlier JLPT levels, the vocabulary books are really well laid out with different themes in each section. I enjoyed going through these when I did N3 and N4. When you get to N1 level, I think the book ends up being just a big vocabulary list and very dry, so I can’t recommend the vocabulary book for the higher levels.

Kak sdelatj dinamometr svoimi rukami iz linejki. Nihongo Sou Matome Kanji For beginners, I think the kanji book is good for practice, but I think you can get more practice by learning words that use kanji in context from learning vocabulary or reading. I didn’t see much of a need for this particular book.

Nihongo Sou Matome Listening The listening books are really nice regardless of level. I highly recommend them for becoming familiar with the patterns used in the listening test.

Even if you have confidence in your listening ability doesn’t mean you’ll be ready for the tricky questions that will be thrown at you. Get this one.

My recommended books for each level For beginners (N5-N3) The books that will help beginners the most are the Reading, Vocabulary, and Listening books. If you’re on a budget, look at a sample online or in a bookstore. I think it’s better to have one book for reading (vocabulary OR reading) and one for listening.

For Intermediate to Advanced (N2-N1) The only book I recommend for higher level learners from Nihongo Sou Matome is the listening. At this stage, you need all the reading practice you can get. Studying only vocabulary will not be enough to help you get through tough reading passages. I would recommend looking into a different book series such as “” or “Try!” for help with grammar and reading comprehension. Sounds great, where can I buy them? You can buy Nihongo Sou Matome books from the.

I’ve purchased flashcards and reading books from them in the past, so rest assured that they are a decent online store. They also have worldwide shipping, which is nice. Have you used the Nihongo Sou Matome books before? Did they work for you?

Let me know in the comments! Hi KuroPixel, thanks for your advice. Its me again. So I had completed the JLPTN3 books of Sou Matome. I would say I had understood about 90% of the syllabus in this set of textbooks.

So as a mid-term check on where I am, I did 1 set of papers from the book of “JLPT N3 Practice Tests and Strategies” (at this point of time, I am about 4 weeks away from N3 test on 06Dec2015). To my slight horror, I think the practice test was more difficult than the Sou Matome textbooks.

The good thing was that a lot of the answers to the practice tests are part of the syllabus from Sou Matome. But when all these syllabus gets put together into a test, my memory starts to fail and what I learnt gets all jumbled up in my head. 🙁 I think the solution is to do more practice tests and again review Sou Matome after doing these tests. Do you have even more practice tests to recommend for JLPTN3? Hi there – anyone took the JLPT N3 December 2015 paper? It was unfortunately disastrous for me 🙁.
