Remembering the Kanji III: Writing and Reading Japanese Characters for Upper-Level Proficiency

Description

Review:

It is what it is



This does not go through much like the remembering the kana books. Which i recomend. This is a little too expensive, but it is ok too. As a beginner who teaches myslef. I found it dry and boring.



but hey it's kanji.



I just wanted to have all of the heisig collection for references. No I am not rich, just trying to learn as much as possible. I ate ramen instant noodles for 2 1/2 months to save up for this book. Is it worht that sacrafice? No. No. No .No . No!



You could do just as well with a basic kanji dictionary for a lot less.



That being said if you are upperclass, or your parents are buying it, then shoot....why not pick it up?



It can teach you something and is more comfortable to hold than the big bulky dictionaries.



People will tell you...oh it's parrt three...I know ant. But if you are going to live in tokyo ...news flash there are no ants. And time is so precious nobody is going to stay around to talk to you about ants.



You also do not have to buy part 1 or 2 of this series to have this book be of use.



Not sure where i am going with this. If oyu can afford it or are really determined to learn all things Japanese written, than buy iy. If you are strapped in a budget and hate to read books. pick up rosetta stone japanese or a basic introduction to japanese book.



BUying the books alone don't help you learn. It is the repitition and commitment. that is the key. Some aids can help you ge thtere quicker, bt not by much. They just want your cash so they can continue to live.



Basicallly it's up to you.



Good luck on your studies and enjoy.



Review:

The Road to Literacy - Adventures of Eternity



First, I'd like to note a couple of things:

(1) This book is no longer available in printed form on Amazon.com at this time. There are no doubt other places where you can buy this book in printed form, and there is always the option of a pdf/e-book version of this book available from the Nanzen institute website. This is merely a review of the product itself, not of Amazon's price or availability (or lack thereof).



(2) This book is intended for those that have finished both Remembering the Kanji volumes I and II. Chances are that most people reading this review have not done this; they are merely curious about what the advanced stages of this learning method are. If you've studied the first two books to their completion, this final book will be purchased regardless of what I say about it. The devotion one has at this point is stronger than anything I could possibly say to convince one otherwise.



What is this book? It is the third volume that expands on James Heisig's kanji-learning system (Which I would call "revolutionary," but I don't want this to sound too gimmicky). The first book tacked an English keyword onto all of the 2,000 kanji. The second book showed ways to remember readings of the kanji. By the time you finished both of these books (properly), you should know more than 2,000 characters, the basic number needed for a literate person in Japan. (I am at the level that I can read most what I would see in a newspaper, although I can recognize most all of the characters.) Once you are at this level, you now have free roam of many Japanese reading materials; the only obsticle you will encounter are kanji that aren't part of the joyou kanji and aren't part of the 2,000+ kanji you learned in the previous books in this series; and this is where book three comes in, as it expands your kanji knowledge by 1,000 new characters. And since only 1,000 new characters are treated in this third book (Compared to the 2,000 treated in the previous books), this allows enough space to cover all of the new kanji in the same manner as books one and two, except it is done in one volume. The first half of the book treats each kanji with a keyword; the second half covers the readings of the kanji.



The benefits are pretty straightforward, but if you've finished
