This book is intended for learners and teachers of English to Japanese students who struggle with sounds that do not exist in Japanese or are confusing to the Japanese ear, especially "f" and "v," "l" and "r" and "w," in order to avoid the typical "Japlish" mispronunciations. Known as the Kawata Method, the text offers clear pronunciation exercises and methodology. The author also provides an introduction to learning Japanese, including useful situational dialogs. In addition, there are helpful chapters on understanding aspects of the Japanese character and way of life.
