JLPT Kanji N1 — Том 7

N1 is where the written language parts company with the spoken one.

This volume is the classical register and what is left: the monastery and the shrine, the zodiac that dated everything before the Western calendar, the particles of literary Japanese, and the characters that survive in names and nowhere else. Every character gets a spread of its own, laid out the same way every time.

Readings you can hear. Every on'yomi and kun'yomi with its own example words, because a reading you cannot hear in a real word is not yet knowledge.

Stroke order before the pen. Each frame adds one stroke, drawn dark over what you have already written in grey — and it comes before the tracing, never after.

Every chapter closes itself. Reference sheets, then practice, then the answers. You never turn to the back of the book for an answer.

Particles, not just meanings. Each chapter lists the verbs it teaches with the particle each one takes — the part nobody teaches and everybody gets wrong.

Furigana and romaji on every line, so you can read the whole book from the first page.

More than 2,000 real sentences, and an index of every character by stroke count with the page it is taught on.
