[Japanophiles] A Dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar

[Trading Department]

Dear Japanophiles, Ice Mocha users, Rolomail Customers:

Some years ago I was given a copy of "A Dictionary of Basic Japanese  
Grammar" by my Japanese tutor.  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:

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.
