Real Japanese

Real Japanese illustrates the way Japanese children learn to speak their own language. Every new language point spoken by an actual child is listed here, in a day by day format. This is a very different approach to the way Japanese is generally taught in textbooks and language courses, which introduce grammar using contrived conversations. Every sentence here is real Japanese, as spoken by a Japanese child. It is the aim of this book to present the basics of the Japanese language using this radical new method that we hope will allow the reader to communicate effectively in a much shorter time.
