Language Study Method for Japanese learners When you find a Japanese expression which you want to acquire, I recommend you to collect several Japanese sentences which have the common structure. Additionally, if you prepare an English translation of the sentences, that would be great. You can see an example in the following: Japanese Sentences (1)地下鉄はどこにありますか？ (2)トイレはどこにありますか。 (3)博物館はどこにありますか。 (4)渋谷駅はどこにありますか。 (5)郵便局はどこにありますか。 How to read in Roman alphabet (1)Chikatetsu wa dokoni ari masuka? (2)toire wa dokoni ari masuka (3)hakubutsukan wa dokoni ari masuka (4)shibuyaki wa dokoni ari masuka (5)yuubinkyoku wa dokoni ari masuka English meaning (1)Where can I find the subway? (2)Where can I find the bathroom? (3)Where can I find the museum? (4)Where can I find the Shibuya station? (5)Where can I find the post office? To tattoo these expressions in your brain, I recommend you to read these group of sentences out loud in total 80 times. To begin with, you can focus on reading only Japanese sentences out loud to remember them 10 times. Also, don't forget take a note about how many times you read. This is very important! After 10 times, please take a look at English sentences and check whether you can translate them into Japanese correctly or you can't. If you can't do it, don't worry about it. You can read the Japanese sentences out loud again about 4 times. Then, please check whether you can translate the English sentences into Japanese again. I'm sure you can do better than last time. Then, after you read the Japanese sentences out loud 4 times and check whether you can translate. So, you need to read them out loud at least 15 times on the first day. Then, you only need to do that 10 times (Basic routine {only Japanese 4 times and checking[translation] once )x 2 set} a day. Please do it at least 80 times in total. I believe this method help you increase your speaking and writing abilities.
