Rating: Summary: Wow! Learn Adjectives AND more! Review: I was a little put off by the last reviewer's comments about the book and one star rating but took the chance anyway... and found this to be an excellent book despite it being a book full of 'fill in the blanks'!The Complete Adjective Guide is over 200 pages of exercises that slowly get you into adjectives, nouns, sentence structure and adjective conjugation. I never knew how complex and helpful Japanese adjectives are for sentence structure and information conveyance. As you learn about the adjectives, they take you into verb/adjective conjugation and you slowly learn how to conjugate verbs as well! Brilliant. This isn't a book for the absolute beginner; it is best to have some Japanese vocab under your belt at this point, and a very basic understanding of Japanese sentence structures. Despite that, this book does provide two indexes in the back with Japanese words used and the English translation, and English words with the Japanese provided. I highly recommend this book for the 'just past' beginner student.
Rating: Summary: Just a workbook Review: I was looking for a complete guide to Japanese adjectives, this isn't it. It is a workbook filled with lots of white space for you to write in your answers. If it was easier to return, this one would be gone.
Rating: Summary: Adjectives Simplified Review: Most books on the language, when discussing adjectives mix and match the "i" adjectives and the "na" adjectives, this book however keeps them seperate, and therefore helps your grasp of their usage expand quicker than other "sections" devoted to Japanese Adjectives contained in Japanese Language books.
