The MOJI (Characters) section of Ultimate Japanese introduces you to the main types of characters used in Japanese: kana (both hiragana and katakana) and kanji. Romaji (a romanized writing system) is used throughout the course as you become familiar with the vocabulary and structure of the Japanese language; in later lessons, the MOJI section both mirrors the main lesson dialogue in kana and kanji and continues to introduce new characters for study.

In this package you’ll find:

1 comprehensive coursebook with 40 lessons. Each lesson contains a lively and authentic dialogue, vocabulary, grammar and usage, cultural highlights, and plenty of practice. The book also contains review sections, a grammar summary, a glossary, and more.

10 Audio CDs
*4 CDs for use with the book
*4 more CDs that expand upon what you learn in each lesson, designed for review, reinforcement, and practice on-the-go
*1 CD with essential survival expressions for the most common situations you will encounter
*1 CD with supplemental vocabulary in easy-to-master thematic groups

1 CD-ROM that contains flashcards with over 500 vocabulary words and phrases. You can see the word and its English translation, and can hear the word spoken too. Includes both learn and practice modes.
