MARUGOTO CHUKYU 2 B1

Marugoto is a textbook for adult learners of Japanese based on the JF Standard for Japanese Language-Education. Learners at the Intermediate 2 level (B1) are expected to express themselves in a specific manner, and can properly understand main points as well as background information within the context of familiar themes. Based on the philosophy of "Japanese for mutual understanding," each topic features people from various cultural backgrounds interacting in Japanese. Dialogues, photos, and illustrations are used throughout to help foster cross-cultural understanding. Marugoto also emphasizes auditory learning by providing many audio clips of natural spoken conversations that students can hear and repeat to strengthen their listening skills.
