Unlike conventional grammars, it gives special attention to those areas of vocabulary and grammar that cause the most difficulty to English speakers. Careful consideration is given throughout to questions of style, register, and politeness, and there are sections on social rituals such as greetings, introductions and apologies. Clear, readable and easy to consult, with two indexes (Japanese and English), this is an essential reference for learners seeking access to the finer nuances of the Japanese language.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William McClure\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521641551\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521641555\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/09\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 350\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.81d","brand":"William McClure","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44491361517823,"sku":"9780521641555","price":158.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_073ea074-0d7f-404d-b87e-9c07dd550316.jpg?v=1699450772","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/using-japanese-william-mcclure-9780521641555","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
