Introduction
Welcome to A Japanese Phrase A Day, a desk companion that offers you short, simple, and functional phrases. Whether you’re an absolute beginner or an intermediate-level learner, it will help you bring the Japanese language into your everyday life!
Each page offers you four components:
1. The phrase in Japanese characters.
2. A transliteration using English letters, which gives English speakers a guide to pronunciation.
3. The English translation.
4. A note about the phrase, Japan, or Japanese culture.
