The perfect language guide for visitors to Japan!

Conversational Japanese is designed to prepare you for every situation you are likely to encounter when visiting Japan for travel or work. Author Anne Kaneko has five decades of experience as a translator, writer and businesswoman and her book is unique in presenting real-life communication advice—now completely revised and expanded for the digital age!

Each chapter begins with a brief introduction and dialogue providing words and phrases you actually need to manage a range of daily tasks—from meeting people to shopping, getting around, sightseeing, visiting clients or booking a restaurant.

Common situations covered in this book include:

  • Reserving a hotel room and renting a car
  • Picking up a SIM card and making phone calls
  • Planning a trip and riding the train
  • Taking friends out to dinner and ordering in a restaurant
  • Writing emails, business letters, cards and thank-you notes
  • And many more!

The Japanese phrases are simple and clear, presented in romanized form for easy pronunciation as well as Japanese script. Hundreds of example sentences and over 50 detailed cultural notes on Japanese customs and etiquette make this the most complete and authentic Japanese language guide available!
Anne Kaneko is a graduate of the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London. She lived and worked in Japan for many years both as a translator and as a businesswoman. She now lives in the United Kingdom.
