6 Simple Ways to Start Your Japanese Learning Journey

Japanese is one of the most prominent East Asian languages spoken by more than 128 million people across the globe. Although it is the national language of Japan, it is spoken in many countries including the United States, Brazil, and Korea because of the huge population of immigrants in these countries. Over the past few years, people's craze for learning the Japanese language has grown tremendously because of so many socioeconomic reasons. And, full capacity batches of JLPT Training in Delhi NCR are a clear testimony to this fact.

Renowned Japanese conglomerates are expanding their businesses in different parts of the world with new manufacturing units and corporate offices. Apart from it, there is no dearth of people around the globe who want to either work in Japan or to live permanently in this most progressive and beautiful country in the world. All these factors together are triggering the need for learning the Japanese language among people of all age groups.

Practice grammar as much as you can

If you want to master the Japanese language perfectly, then you need to practice grammar as much as you can. Don’t get terrified by the term ‘grammar’ here because there is a huge difference between English and Japanese grammar. It is important to utter this here because more than 90% of students during their schooling learn English grammar as part of their foreign language syllabus. Just contrary to many other languages, the Japanese language has only 2 tenses, namely past and non-past. Notwithstanding, there are two forms – polite and plain. The latter one among them is used for casual speech.

Language experts conducting professional JLPT Training programs suggest that you should begin learning Japanese by going through textbooks. Some of the well-known textbooks to begin learning the Japanese language include:
