Japanese Sentence Patterns for JLPT N1 : Training Book Vol.1 (2019) - Page 12 preview image■PrefaceLearning a language is a long journey. Are you heading ahead on the right path? If you take the wrong way, youwill not achieve your goal and your time and effort spent on will be in vain.In myself, I had a hard time to communicate in a foreign language at the beginning. I felt frustrated andhelpless.However, I finally discovered a quite effective learning approach. Thanks to making efforts through thisapproach, now I can write, listen, speak, and enjoy communication in a foreign language.By my experience of practicing this approach for more than ten years, I am convinced that this is one of the mosteffective learning approaches for any language learners. I share my learning methods with you as much as I can.Also, I share my unique learning material on my website.One of the most important methods I will share is Sentence Pattern Method (SPM). Sentence Pattern Method isthe sentence template that contains constants and variables. This is similar to the mathematical formula.Also, I will tell you how to utilize “Read-aloud Method” to print sentence patterns in your memory and to openthe door to boost your Japanese communications skills.

Japanese Sentence Patterns for JLPT N1 : Training Book Vol.1 (2019) - Page 13 preview image■Learning Methods / how to tap into this bookI have 2 learning methods which I recommend to you.①Sentence Pattern Method (to install grammar rules in your brain)②Read-aloud Method (to strengthen your memory)1.Sentence Pattern MethodIf you have Genki or any textbook, you will eventually come to the conclusion that while they get you started,you are still lacking skills in that language. So what can you do? Let’s try the Sentence Pattern approach!When you find some Japanese expressions which you want to acquire, I recommend you to collect severalJapanese sentences (around 5 to 7) which have the common structure. Additionally, if you prepare an English(oryour mother tongue) translation of the sentences, that would be great.It is good for you to understand simple formulas for sentences. After understanding and practicing these patternsand you can stick words in... and create your own sentences!You can see an example of the following:日本語/にほんご/ Japanese(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。
Page 14 of 16
Japanese Sentence Patterns for JLPT N1 : Training Book Vol.1 (2019) - Page 14 preview image(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。英語/えいご/ English(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?ひらがな/ Hiragana(1)ちかてつはどこにありますか？(2)といれはどこにありますか。(3)はくぶつかんはどこにありますか。(4)しぶやえきはどこにありますか。(5)ゆうびんきょくはどこにありますか。ローマ字/ Roman letters(1)Chikatetsu wa dokoniari masuka?(2)Toire wa dokoni ari masuka?(3)Hakubutsukan wa dokoni ari masuka?(4)Shibuya eki wa dokoni ari masuka?(5)Yuubinkyoku wa dokoni ari masuka?After checking them out, it would not difficult for you to find a common pattern among them. Now you canmake your own sentence by switching the first noun in the sentence. That’s quite simple, isn’t it?After learning sentence patterns, you can create a variety of sentences and not to be limited to one or twopatterns each time you speak or write.Also, you can more easily correct sentences because you’ll know how sentences are built. You’ll understand theparts of a clause and how they fit together.However, I have to admit that knowing sentence patterns is not enough. We need to practice to help set themmore firmly in our memory. So, I am going to tell you another method.2.Read-aloud MethodTo tattoo these expressions in your brain, I recommend you to read a group of sentences out loud60 times intotal( I do it at least 80 times).To begin with, you can focus on reading only Japanese sentences out loud toremember them 4 times.Also, don’t forget to take a note about how many times you read. This is very important!
Page 15 of 16
Japanese Sentence Patterns for JLPT N1 : Training Book Vol.1 (2019) - Page 15 preview imageAfter reading Japanese sentences out loud twice, please take a look at English sentences and check whether youcan translate them into Japanese correctly or you can’t.This is not only a self-checking process but also an important process that helps you clarify the meaning ofJapanese words, expressions, and sentence patterns in your brain.If you can’t do it well, please don’t worry about it. Let’s read the Japanese sentences out loud twice again.This is a basic routine of the Read-Aloud Method. I recommend you to practice this basic routine three times aday.At the second time of the routine, you will check whether you can translate the English sentences into Japanesesentences again. I’m sure you can do better than you did last time.At the third time, you would be more accurate than before.So, you read a group of sentences out loud 15 times a day.This is the basic routine I have practiced once a day ( though English and Japanese are opposite in my case…)It takes only 5 or 10 minutes a day.I recommend you to read a group of Japanese sentences with common structure out loud 60 times in total.So,you will basically master one sentence pattern in 4 days.
Page 16 of 16
Japanese Sentence Patterns for JLPT N1 : Training Book Vol.1 (2019) - Page 16 preview imageAfter that, you would feel that it is difficult for you to forget the sentence pattern you read out loud. In addition,when you speak to Japanese speakers, your brain would try to get opportunities to use it in actual conversations.Please let your brain allow to make conversation with the sentence pattern you mastered!I believe this method helps you boost your communication skills in Japanese!
