Synopsis :

This book is intended for learners and teachers of English to Japanese students who struggle with sounds that do not exist in Japanese or are confusing to the Japanese ear, especially "f" and "v," "l" and "r" and "w," in order to avoid the typical "Japlish" mispronunciations. Known as the Kawata Method, the text offers clear pronunciation exercises and methodology. The author also provides an introduction to learning Japanese, including useful situational dialogs. In addition, there are helpful chapters on understanding aspects of the Japanese character and way of life.

À propos de l?auteur: Eiichi Kawata was born, 1950, in Saitama Prefecture, Japan. He hardly spoke any English until he went to England at the age of 23. Four years later, he was on a postgraduate course to study International Economic Law at the University of London. While he was a postgraduate student, he mixed with various foreign students and developed an excellent listening ability. He established 'the Kawata Method of Learning English Conversation' by clearly demonstrating how to pronounce 'the sound of R'.
