1. Japanese language learning

To study and review Genki textbooks Volume I and II (JAPN1A, JAPN1B, JAPN2A, JAPN2B), go to the publisher's page: Genki Self-Study Page - Japanese and English version. This page introduce a numbe of self-study sites

  • Dr. Andrea Shea and I collaboratively develop a supplemental online material for Genki book (I gave her ideas and she developed the website). Visit Usagi-chan' Genki Resource Web page.

  • Usagi-site has an interesting vocabulary exercise. Work on Vocabulary on all lessons. In this exercise, you need to type in kana to do this exercise. This means that you need to have the Japanese language system. When you type in, Usagi give you "x" if you do not type the word in the textbook. For example, "thanks" can be all of the followings: どうも、ありがとう、どうもありがとう. But Usagi's site only shows you "O" when you type どうも. Well, do you want to try? Click Genki Vocabulary Flashcards.
