restaurants in the top floors or basements of the same building.

: Means “word” as well as “language” (also plural for both).
ÞÊÆï
and
ìÌÍâ
: “A large amount” and “a small amount,” respectively, when indicating
either the amount or the degree of things. When used adverbially, place immediately before the
predicate.

Step 3
1. The chart below gives a group of useful kanji.
Kanji Reading Words Reading Notes
Ö äï Ö× äïäë ÖìäïÍ means “ahead.”
×ìäëÍîmeans “to be born.”
Ï µÊ Ï× µÊäë ÏìµÊÍ means “to learn”
» «ë »Ï «ëµÊ We learned »ì[[Íåë, but this
kanji has another reading, «ë.
Ò Þæ Òë Þæë The kanji is read Þæ. ë must be added.
The kanji Ò means “high,” or “expensive.”
¹ Ìç Ϲ µÓÌç ¹ìÌçÍ means “school building.”
Ò Ìç Ò¹ ÌçÌç The kanji Ò has another reading, Ìç.
ÄËË Ä ËË The kanji Ämeans one’s own
“mother”; when used alone,
the kanji is read ËË.
Ä æ [ÄÆï [æÆï In this combination, the kanji is read æ.
¿ÂÂ ¿ ÂÂ The kanji ¿ means one’s own “father”;
when used alone, the kanji is read ÂÂ.
¿ Îç [¿Æï Îç In this combination, the kanji is read Îç.
Û ëÑ Û ëÑ ÛìëÑÍ means “now.”
2. Unseparable kanji compounds:
Ûê, pronounced åÚç, consists of two independent kanji, but in this combination they cannot be
separated into separate readings. Together, it should be pronounced åÚç.
Another such word is ê. The two kanji are pronounced together as âÞ, and no particular
sound is assigned to either kanji. See Step 3 in Stage 1-6.

5. Use the section of the summary of new vocabulary to practice reading of some kanji words that
were used in this chapter. Repeat until you can recognize them easily.
3: Reading Kanji
2: Reading Practice (Sentences)
6. In any language, the activity of reading is a complex process that involves, along with other
things, some guessing. Sentences or paragraphs provide quite a bit of context for such things as
word meanings. This is true for kanji as well. The following passage contains words and kanji
that you may not know.
You can see that it is a letter. Go through the following process, and see how much you can guess.
First, read through the entire passage silently, and see how much meaning you can obtain.
Share the information you understood with your partner (in either Japanese or English).
Now go back to the passage for a more detailed reading. You do not have to read aloud, as you
may not know how to pronounce some of the kanji, but you will be surprised by how often you
can guess the meanings of some words or phrases.
Do not write the phonetic guide over any kanji. Providing phonetic guides at this point will not
facilitate learning at all.
Share the information you understood once again with your partner (in either Japanese or
English), or do the question-and-answer activity for the content of the reading.
Summarize the content of the reading as much as possible.
Recount the content of the letter in Japanese (not verbatim).
Write a letter modeled after the reading above.
