At least one sample sentence or phrase accompanies the majority of the entries, all of which appear in English and in both standard and romanized Japanese. Where appropriate, a detailed explanation of related Japanese words and kanji compounds has been added to encourage greater fluency.Much more than a bilingual lexicon, The Modem English-Nihongo Dictionary includes over 1,000 mini kanji guides, hundreds of notes on Japanese culture and tradition, and a generous helping of essential information regarding differences between Japanese and English in meaning or usage.Students at all levels of Japanese proficiency will hail this innovative new dictionary with relief, as a welcome aid in the study of a difficult language.
