Common Japanese Collocations: A Learner's Guide to Frequent Word Pairings - Kakuko Shoji

Descriere Common Japanese Collocations: A Learner's Guide to Frequent Word Pairings - Kakuko Shoji

\nCollocations are word combinations that occur in natural speech more frequently than can be explained by chance. In English, we say, take a bath (or have a bath in British English), but in Japanese the equivalent is get in a bath, o-furo ni hairu. The verb hairu is the one that collocates with o-furo. \nIt has long been recognized that the study of collocations can lead to more natural language production, and yet until now there has been no book on the subject for learners of Japanese. Common Japanese Collocations will be the first resource to introduce the most frequently used noun-and-verb and noun-and-adjective combinations. \n \nThe book is divided into six thematic chapters centering on daily life. Each chapter presents more than a hundred key entries, which consist of a noun and a selection of words that go with that noun. Some collocations come with example sentences that demonstrate how the word pair can be used in a sentence. In addition, throughout the book there are notes on common usage errors.\n
