how to use this book

Whether you are learning a new language
for business, pleasure, or in preparation for
a vacation abroad, or are hoping to extend
your vocabulary in an already familiar
language, this dictionary is a valuable
learning tool that you can use in a number
of different ways.

When learning a new language, look
out for cognates (words that are alike in
different languages) and derivations (words
that share a common root in a particular
language). You can also see where the
languages have influenced each other. For
example, English has imported some terms
for food from Japanese but, in turn, has
exported many terms used in technology
and popular culture.

Practical learning activities
• As you move around your home,
workplace, or college, try looking at the
pages which cover that setting. You could
then close the book, look around you and
see how many of the objects and features
you can name.
• Make flashcards for yourself with English
on one side and Japanese/Romaji on the
other side. Carry the cards with you and
test yourself frequently, making sure you
shuffle them between each test.
• Challenge yourself to write a story, letter,
or dialogue using as many of the terms on
a particular page as possible. This will help
you retain the vocabulary and remember
the spelling. If you want to build up to
writing a longer text, start with sentences
incorporating 2–3 words.
• If you have a very visual memory, try
drawing or tracing items from the book
onto a piece of paper, then close the book
and fill in the words below the picture.
• Once you are more confident, pick out
words in the foreign language index and
see if you know what they mean before
turning to the relevant page to check if
you were right.
