Now You're Talking Japanese in No Time (Now You're Talking Series) (Japanese Edition)

This attractive, illustrated traveler's aid consists of a Japanese language phrasebook, Getting By in Japanese, with two accompanying audio compact discs. The phrasebook has been updated and re-designed in this new edition. Perfect as a take-along guide for visitors to the Far East, it features city maps, information on public transportation systems, general information for visitors to Japan, and bilingual lists (phonetic spellings with English translations) of more than 1,500 most-often-used words and expressions for travelers. The book's page edges are color-coded by topic for quick reference. Two audio compact discs, which replace the older cassette tapes in previous editions, give international travelers approximately 90 minutes of bilingual dialogue. They dramatize typical situations and conversations at airports, hotels, stores, taxicabs, and the like. The CDs come with an added bilingual script booklet.
