The book was over 600 pages of grammatical constructions organized in dictionary order with example sentences, translations, and grammatical notes. It was completely fabulous and one of the best I've ever owned. The book is usually only sold in Japan, so it took us some time to finally locate some, but we did. And we also have the more advanced sequel, "A Dictionary of Intermediate Japanese Grammar" A Dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar & A Dictionary of Intermediate Japanese Grammar Are both accessible from the "Japanese Language Basics" page: http://www.rolomail.com/cgi-bin/home.cgi?j_basics A Dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar A DICTIONARY OF BASIC JAPANESE GRAMMAR offers a new approach to the interpretation of Japanese grammar and provides, in dictionary format, a convenient reference of grammar-related expressions. Accurate and concise, the grammar explanations incorporate the results of recent research in Japanese linguistics. http://www.rolomail.com/cgi-bin/sanadd.pl?1001 A Dictionary of Intermediate Japanese Grammar In order to advance beyond beginning-level Japanese, students must develop facility in handling a variety of language issues both in written and in spoken Japanese, e.g., knowledge of complex sentence structures for reading authentic texts, mastery of conjunctions and transitional phrases for coherent sentence production, familiarity with nuances among related expressions for conveying ideas accurately, and other information. http://www.rolomail.com/cgi-bin/sanadd.pl?1002
