Manga News Service - The World's Source For Manga News: "1-20-05---- New Book Teaches Japanese Through Manga
Stone Bridge Press, publisher of books about Japan, wants students everywhere to take this book of comics to school! Former MANGAJIN translation editor Wayne P. Lammers has written a 'real manga, real Japanese' resource and study manual for language students and teachers.
Presenting all spoken Japanese as a variation of three basic sentence types, JAPANESE THE MANGA WAY shows you how to build complex constructions step by step. Manga actually published in Japan is used to illustrate key grammar points and show how the language is used in real life.
Learning with manga makes rules and structures easy to remember, and also lets you experience colloquialisms, contractions, interjections, and other elements of speech that get short shrift in more formal textbooks. At the same time, you'll find a wealth of solid information to give you confidence at exam time.
With a detailed index, numerous tables and sidebars, and a complete guide to pronunciation, JAPANESE THE MANGA WAY is ideal as an introduction for the independent student, as a supplement for the beginning classroom, and as a reference or review for advanced learners.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Wayne P. Lammers grew up in Japan and has taught Japanese at the university level. An award-winning translator, he was the translation editor for MANGAJIN magazine for seven years. He lives in Portland, Oregon.
