(★)(Fifty Useful Japanese Proverbs and Sayings with Translations and Grammatical Notes.／ Proverbs are often thought of as cliches -albeit cliches with a poetic touch. Proverbs, however, are far from meaningless and overused phrases. They often express in a compact and precise way complex thoughts that would otherwise require a great deal of explanation. Japanese tend to use ´kotowaza´ often -more often than most English speakers. It would therefore be beneficial for you to pepper your vocabulary with these pithy pieces of wisdom. The fifty proverbs contained in this book represent some of the most useful ´kotowaza´ heard in Japanese daily life. You´ll notice them in movies, in writing, and most importantly spoken by friends and colleagues. Knowing common ´kotowaza´ will not only help you express your thoughts more clearly, but also take your Japanese to a whole new polished level. As they say, 「善は急げ」(→see page 24) So let´s get started.／ Visit http://www.TheJapanShop.com for quality Japanese language learning materials.) |
