TRY! JLPT N5 – A Smart Choice for JLPT N5 Prep

This book, a collection of grammar questions for level N5 of the Japanese-Language Proficiency Test, is the product of 30 years of experience at the Japanese Language Institute of the Asian Students Cultural Association (ABK). The material in this book was developed from the courses at the Institute. We produced this book in the hope that all of you studying Japanese will obtain a clear understanding of its grammar and become skilled at using the language.

Grammar is the foundation of listening, speaking, reading and writing. We have designed this book so that you can proceed with your studies by going through the following process:

1. Know how this grammar is used during real-life communication in Japanese;
2. Become accustomed to using it by practicing the fundamentals;
3. Practice applying the grammar in review questions that involve listening to and reading Japanese.

The review questions follow the same format as those that appear in the Japanese-Language Proficiency Test. This means that takers of the test can study grammar strategies and practice reading comprehension and listening test questions all in this one book.

We gave this book the title "TRY!" to encourage you to give Japanese a try, as well as to say that trying your best can bring rewards, like a "try" in rugby. We hope that you will use this book to study for and pass level N5 of the Japanese-Language Proficiency Test and that you will be able to further enjoy using the Japanese language to express yourself.

There are five books in this series, one for each level (N5N1). After completing this book, we hope you proceed to the next level to further improve your Japanese language skills.
