Year 12 Japanese Textbooks in PDF?

[Tobias Funke]

Well I'm going to Japan soon, and i'd really like to save myself the hassle of bringing the bulky Wakatta textbook by having a pdf file of a similar textbook so I can still try to learn all the grammar during my trip

If anyone has any ideas/alternative methods it'd be greatly appreciated

has a lot of  Japanese books in .PDF (not sure if it has Wakatta) but im just throwing it up there

it's on the right hand side of the page and just scroll down~

[Greatness]

Thanks for all these resources Furbob!!!
These will help me out a lot

[Tobias Funke]

Have you used any of these Furbob?

[Furbob]

well I bought the Genki 2 workbook myself and I downloaded the textbook and answers from that site so I wouldn't have to burn $70 on getting it

oh and I've downloaded a few other books to look at for curiosity  :angel:

[Greatness]

hmm do you know if there is a pdf file of the kookoo seikatsu kanji workbook?
or is there any other kanji book that you would recommend?
Im trying to put together a book with all the VCE kanji and other useful kanji, grammar, vocab etc

[Furbob]

ooo for Kanji I recommend get Bojinsha's Basic Kanji Book volume 1&2 which covers 250 kanji each with exercises

Most of volume 1 is just full of VCE Kanji and extras but its a bit costly ($70)



for extra grammar exercises I'd recommend getting the Genki 2 workbook ($25) then downloading the textbook from the link I provided (I think I have already mentioned this before lol)



you can buy a load of Japanese books at Language International on Glenferrie Rd

aaaand I've never seen the kookoo seikatsu book in .pdf format

[Tobias Funke]

Genki 2 covers grammar yeah? I'm hoping it does, downloading it now

Thanks a lot

[Greatness]

Thanks
Is there a pdf file for Bojinsha's Basic Kanji Book? Or is it one we have to buy?

I think i might go to that book store

[Furbob]

I think the link only has volume 3&4 in .pdf but there's no 1 or 2

You'd need to buy it anyway because the pages have those blank squares for practicing the stroke order unless you're willing to print out 220+ double sided pages

and Genki 2 does cover grammar but I recommended the workbook because you'd probably want to do the exercises (unless once again, you like to print)

*edit*

oh hey I just noticed the pictures of the books I posted up were similar to the Christmas colours LOLOLOL.

Furbob the Tango book is really good!!!
Do you know how you said you listed the kanji on your poster in some kind of strucure, do you mean how they've got it in that book?
So how they are all grouped into a certain topic?

[Furbob]

You just have headings in english and put all the kanji associated under them and so on, so yes you're right. It's your own initiative so do whatever suits you~

Our teacher makes us have a weekly quiz per chapter in that vocab book so I guess you could do the same.

I also bought myself a whiteboard to put behind the desk I do my homework at and I write the vocab I need to know on that board a week before my vocab quiz so as I do my homework and look up randomly, I get to constantly glance at the words - another tip from Furbob

[Greatness]

yeah whiteboards are goooooood
ive got a couple in my room, i use to put our weekly kanji on them. now ive just got some chem stuff xD

im thinking of downloading the genki book but on that site the picture is different to the one you uploaded, it's mainly white with some dark green writing... are these the same thing?

[Furbob]

the white one with the dark green writing is the textbook, the one I posted a picture of is the workbook
