- Preface for the Kana Version of Japanese for Busy People When Japanese for Busy People I was first published in 1984, rnany non-native learners, particularly frorn non-kanji cultures, considered Japanese one of the world's rnost difficult languages because of its seerningly inaccessible writing systern. Japanese for Busy People was designed especially for such learners-be they businessrnen frorn English-speaking countries or learners of Japanese-as-a-second-language frorn other parts of the world- people wished to learn natural, spoken Japanese a s effectively a s possible in a limited arnount of time. T o this end, rornanized Japanese was included in the Japanese for Busy People s eries so that learners both incide and outside Japan, a s well a s non-native instruc- t ors, could use the textbook to its fu11 e xtent without the need t o read Japanese script. As a rneasure, however, kana and kanji w ere progressively introduced through volurnes I t o 111. But in the decade since Japanese for Busy PeopleS first publication, there has been a growing increase in the number of people learning Japanese-as-a-second-language through- out the world. Many of thern are now interested in studying Japanese in a more compre- hensive way, and wish to learn to read and write as well as speak and understand what is said to thern. Educationalists have pointed out the problerns of teaching and learning accu- rate and natural pronunciation through rornanization, as well as the inconvenience of not being able to read and write at an early stage. AJALT has received rnany requests to drop rornanization and include more exercises in kana and kanji. In this, the Kana Version of Japanese for Busy People, al1 rornanization has been omitted so that the learner can now learn Japanese directly through native script frorn Book I. We sincerely hope that the book will be of much use for the rnany people interested in Japan and the Japanese language. Septernber 1995 Association for Japanese-Language Teaching (AJALT) v ii W
- About the Kana Version of Japanese for Busy People 11 How can Japanese for Busy People help you learn Japanese? T he aim of Japanese for Busy People is to help you learn essential Japanese quickly a s pos- sible, so that you can actually comunicate with native speakers in their own language. It has been prepared under the guidance of a working group of AJALT's experienced and specially-trained language i nstmctors who have t ested and revised the material in a class- room environment. Japanese for Busy People ZZ aims to help you learn Japanese by increas- ing your awareness of just what kind of language Japanese actually is through basic conversation patterns. T he Kana Version is a basic textbook for students who intend to master the native kana and kanji s cripts early on in their studies. This edition is designed so that it can be used by those attending a course in Japanese and for self-study in combination with either the cassette tapes or compact discs (and indeed al1 o ther components in the Japanese for Busy People series). What does Japanese for Busy People II cover? Japanese for Busy People ZI c arries on from where Book I leaves off, and as in the first volume, covers "survival Japanese." This means al1 t he language that you leam--conversa- tion patterns, s entence s tructures, grammatica1 principles, and vocabulary-can be put to immediate use in conversational situations with native speakers. Unlike many other textbooks that overwhelm t he beginner with an excessive and all- to-often irrelevant amount of information, Japanese for Busy People 11 limits vocabulary and grammar patterns to what is essential for the most common situations in which non- native speakers need t o comunicate in Japanese. Simplistic or even juvenile ways of expression that abound in most introductory texts have been abandoned in favor of uncomplicated adult speech. Much more than simple grammatical accuracy, emphasis has been placed on natura1 and authentic linguistic patterns actuaily used in Japanese commu- nication. T hese then are the specifications that we believe make Japanese for Busy People I1 t he essential textbook not only for busy, working people who want to learn basic Japanese, but also for people who already know some Japanese but wish t o review the phrases they know and reconfirm that they are using them in the correct situation. What Japanese for Busy People II does not include T he Kana Version assurnes that you are thoroughly farniliar with hiragana, katakana, and the twenty kanji introduced in A ppendk M of Book I. L earners should also be confident with the grammar and vocabulary in Book I. We recommend that anyone who has diffi- culty with the first lessons in this book should review that text before proceeding to the more advanced material. - viii
- The strutture of Japanese for Busy People II Each lesson is based on one distinct conversational situation, and in a total of twenty lessons are included two reading reviews in Lessons 10 and 20. At the back of the book you will find three appendices covering among other things, particles and verb conjuga- tions. We have also included suggested answers to the Quiz sections, two glossaries, and a fu11 index of the main grammatical items introduced in this book. The Opening Dialogues are presented in the standard vertical form of Japanese writing in the Supplement. The map of Japan printed on the front endpapers and the list of new kanji used in this text- book printed on the back endpapers should also prove useful to your studies. Typically the lessons evolve around a practical topic or a cultural theme such as reserving hotel rooms and discussion of the d e s of sumo wrestling. T he title of the les- son and the English topic sentence at the beginning of the lesson should give you a f i m idea of the content of the dialogue or reading passage. A new feature in Book I1 is the use of kanji throughout this textbook. On its first occurrence on a page, a kanji is accompanied by h rigana ( the contextual reading of the character in hiragana printed below the kanji.) An exception to this rule is made in the sections about Grammar & Lesson Objectives and Notes where furigana is added to al1 t he kanji. An idiomatic English translation of the dialogue or reading passage appears immedi- ately after the Japanese text. New vocabulary and new usages of previously learned vocab- ulary are introduced in a list with their English equivalents. Note that new vocabulary is treated in exactly the same way when it appears for the first tirne in the Practice section. New sentence patterns are explained in Grammar & Lesson Objectives. Since t he s ame constmctions may appear at earlier and advanced levels, grammatical explanations are not always treated comprehensively in one place and may to some extent be repeated. When appropriate, explanations include related constructions and patterns. More detailed analysis of important words and phrases is included in the Notes section of each lesson. Here, we aim t o explain, as accurately and briefly as possible, points that many non-native learners commonly find difficult to grasp. Although we have concentrated chiefly on offering linguistic information, in some cases we thought it necessary to add some social o r cultural references. The Practice section reinforces the main points of the topic. Key Sentences are given in both Japanese and English to provide f urther examples of language patterns and vocab- ulary usage. Many non-native learners will find these examples useful for reference even after completing al1 twenty lessons. Exercises encourage you to learn new vocabulary, to practice conjugating verbs, and to acquire many other communication skills. Short Dia- logues summarize aii new points introduced in the lesson through variations on the main situation. Finally we have included a selection of problems in the Quiz section to enable you to check how weii you have acquired the new language skills. The two reading review lessons (Lessons 10 and 20) a re somewhat different from other lessons in that they are presented in the form of written Japanese. In our experi- ence, students leam Japanese most effectively when studying both conversational and written Japanese from the very beginning. The underlying rationale being that the two modes of communication, ora1 and written, are different, and it is thought best to highlight the difference a t an early stage. When simply talking, speaker and listener share much STRUCTURE
- information that could be ornitted from the conversation without detriment to c omunica- tion. In a story, report, or letter, however, it is essential to be more organized, structured, and explicit in order to comunicate effectively. The kanji in Books I1 and I I I Modern Japanese is written primariiy with t hree scripts: k anji, hiragana, and katakana. Arabic numerals and the English alphabet are also used when needed. Japanese is typically written as a rnixture of k anji and hiragana, although the number of words written in katakana is increasing. Katakana is used for words borrowed from other languages, the names of foreign people and places, the names of plants and animals, and so on. The Opening Dialogues in Book I are written only in hiragana. A few k anji a re intro- duced in Appendix M of Book I, but from Lesson 1of Book I1 they are introduced system- atically. While hiragana is a phonetic writing system in that each symbol represents a specific sound, k anji a re ideographic, that is, the characters represent ideas. Each one has its own meaning, and a glance at the kanji in a printed text will often reveal t he content of the piece. Learning k anji is an essential element in learning t he Japanese language. In total, there are over 50,000 k anji, but the number used in daily life is between about 2,500 and 3,000. Many newspapers, magazines, and textbooks restrict themselves to the 1,945 k anji (called j6y6 k anji) designated by the Japanese government in 1981 for writing Japanese. Japanese k anji have two types of readings: the on and the k un. On readings are the Japanese versions of the Chinese pronunciations that were introduced into Japan from China together with characters themselves. The origina1 Chinese pronunciations varied depending on the era and the region they originated from, so some k anji have two or more on readings. In most cases, though, only one on reading is used. K un readings are Japanese words with meanings similar or identica1 to those of their associated kanji. Some kanji have severa1 k un readings, while o thers have none. There are also a few kanji called kokuji that were created in Japan, and some of these lack o n readings. In ordinary kanji dictionaries, when furigana is attached to k anji, t he o n readings are generally written in katakana and the k un readings in hiragana. Combinations of k anji, called jukugo, usually consist of only o n readings or only k un readings. Some jukugo, however, include mixtures of on and k un readings. The new k anji t hat appear at the end of each lesson are presented in the following form: l. *i,+ k ai and ;i't sha a re the on readings, so the furigana a re written in katakana a s Both 4 -ì i-. ;i't has no k un reading, no furigana a re given next to the boxes showing Since the stroke order. The k anji also has the k un reading a u, which is given under the kanji in hiragana. Since a u is a verb, the verbal suffix appears in parentheses. The complete stroke order for every k anji is shown progressively in the boxes, with the total number of strokes appearing in parentheses to the right. The stroke order is - x KANJI I
- important both for m iting and in order to know the number of strokes in a kanji. When looking up a word in a dictionary, even if you do not know the meaning or reacimg of a kanji, you can find it in the index listing characters by the number of strokes. Some 220 kanjz a re introduced in Book I1 which together with the 120 new kanji in Book I11 makes a total of 340 characters. Additional kanjz a re also used throughout the text to m i t e persona1 and place names as well as to refer to everyday words such as ? k No Parking." These characters are only provided for recognition and the learner %" need not remember how to m i t e them, only to read them. The kanji chosen focus on the c ore r equirements of Levels 3 and 4 of the Japanese Language Proficiency examination, augmented with a few characters that are widely used in business and everyday life. This means that learners who have m astered the 340 kanji covered in Books I1 and 111, a re well prepared to pass Level 3 of this internationally recog- nized Japanese language qualification. This Kana Verszon has been designed so that learners are required to master an aver- age of eleven kanji p er lesson in Book I1 and six kanji p er lesson in Book 111. Furzgana (pronunciation guides in the phonetic hiragana) a re printed below a kanji t he first time t hat it appears on a page. An exception to this rule is made in the Vocabulary, Grammar & Lesson Objectives, and Notes sections where furigana has been added to all kanjz regard- l ess of how many times that a kanji is repeated. Al1 220 kanji introduced in Book I1 a re used indiscriminately throughout the textbook. For example, a total of 31 kanji a re used in Lesson 1. There is, however, no need for the learner to try and master al1 t hese characters at once. At the end of Lesson 1, we have selected the eleven new kanji that we recommend to be studied a t this stage. When selecting kanji, priority has been given to those characters appearing in the Opening Dia- logue. Severa1 kanji required for Levels 3 and 4 do not appear in any of the dialogues in either Book I1 o r 111. In such cases, the kanji was identified and picked up from the Key Sentences, Short Dialogues, or Exercise sections. The important Level 4 kanji 5 "west" has been presented as a new kanji in Lesson 20 of this volume, even though it does not appear anywhere in Books I1 and 111.
