Summary

The Workbook accompanying Japanese: The Written Language, Part 1, Volume 1: Katakana contains exercises in reading and writing katakana that are closely coordinated with the textbook. The emphasis is on practicality. These exercises require learners to use katakana to handle authentic, commonly occurring situations, from ordering pizza to proofreading manuscripts, from coping with class lists to skimming newspaper articles for specific information. The degree to which learners are able to complete these exercises rapidly and accurately is an excellent indicator of their true competence in katakana. Book jacket.
