I have seen that RTK I is available in a new edition as of May 2007 (LP $ 32, bn online price $ 25.60). However, RTK II is out of print and I only found a used...
I have a copy of RTK II which is in excellent condition. I would sell it for 7,000 yen plus shipping costs (that's close to what I paid for it). I'm in Japan. ...
When I went to buy RTKII I was told that University of Hawaii press would be taking over and printing new editions. They have just released their printing of...
Are there some web-sites which help us in honing our listening skills as far as Japanese language is concerned. It would be nice if it directed towards JLPT...
... I would recommend JapanesePod101.com's podcast: http://www.japanesepod101.com/index.php Disclaimer: I have done some volunteer work for them. But, I was a ...
Hi all! I have recently joined the group, so I could hear your views about methods for learning kanji. I am currently searching my own, since sometimes I find...
... Hi Luisa with the very long name. You can do what some of the Chinese learners do - simply use the "story" method that Heisig describes to learn the kanji...
Hey everybody! My name's Kris and I'm new to the group. I've studied Japanese in high school for four years, though due to a change in curriculum and a general...
Hi Kris ... That's what this group is all about. I think most of us hit the same question. You should look into a book called _Remembering_the_Kanji_ by...
... easier. ... Use Remembering the Kanji ofc. ^^ I really like that book. Kinda fun to learn and you will learn kanji for Gall Bladder in early lessons ^^...
if you have a look at the free PDF available on the website Steve sent you, I'm sure you'll get the basic idea -- basic thing is that you just learn meaning...
Heya folks! Hope you're all well. Wondering if anyone can help me complete a list of mnemonics for the onyomi readings. Not all of the ones I've got already...
Leslie, sorry that I never got back to you with something helpful on this one. Hopefully the list is a little more helpful. :) I ran into the same problem ...

... Well, if you zip through and memorize the whole book in a month as Heisig did, the order that you learnt them in won't really matter. If you want to learn...
After RTK1 you can't read yet but recognising a great number of kanji is very helpful, even before you can read them. On my first trip to Japan back in April I...
Another peculiar use of RTK1 was when I called someone there to set up a rendez-vous at a train station, since I wouldn't know how the station name was written...
... Not too many of us make it through in a month. It took my all summer and then some to make it through RTK1 and I'm still working on it. ... I'm a visual...
... Um -- I may be misunderstanding you here... Heseig does introduce the kanji by their radicals. That is one thing I see as an advantage of his method. Is...
... Errr. no. What I am saying is that some people say that Heisig's ordering is weird. I disagree. Through using it, in the first few weeks you learn some...
... ... Good -- we are on the same page... At first I thought you were talking about Frequency of Use being more logical. I have this discussion regularly...
... To start with, you learn just the Kanji, not words. And you work through all the kanji (or at least 2045 of 'em). You learn an English meaning for each...
I thought maybe my experience would be interesting to others... About 2 1/2 years ago I decided I wanted to live in Tokyo. I spent most of the time between...
... Such a list already exists in a blog; I can't remember where though. You might post the same question in the crisscross forum, reviewing the kanji forum,...
Hi! I just downloaded and set up the mnemosyne flash card software and I would like to be able to play small .wav or .mp3 files from within the flashcards....
Hi everyone, In the files section, there is a file called, 'Heisig_complete_v3.doc' which lists all the kanji in book 1, along with their associated stories....
