The Kanji Code
Autor Natalie J Hamiltonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 feb 2019
The Kanji Code teaches 150 phonetic components - the key to the readings of 450+ kanji characters.
You will also learn the link between kanji, hiragana and katakana - and use it to remember the ON readings of 50+ common kanji characters.
In addition, you will learn how visual features like shape and patterns like stripes can give a clue to the ON reading of 170+ kanji characters.
The book contains an easy to read explanation of the keisei or form-sound kanji characters, to deepen your understanding of the components and their functions. Graphics show the visual connection between kana and kanji, and visual similarities between kanji with the same or similar readings that would otherwise be overlooked. The visual approach will especially appeal to visual learners and students interested in art and design.
Each kanji features ON and kun readings, English meanings and example words. Kanji readings are written in romaji so they can be read by students of all levels.
The Kanji Code also includes several detailed indexes for ease of searching and improved understanding of kanji composition. The innovative radical index includes the English names of radicals and is sorted not by stroke order but by subject, making it more intuitive to non-native Japanese speakers.
