As stated in the Foreword to the first edition, Minna no Nihongo Shokyu can be regarded as a companion volume to Shin Nihongo no Kiso, a textbook originally developed for technical trainees. We are proud to publish the second edition of Minna no Nihongo Shokyu. Iwao Ogawa President, 3A Corporation March 1998Р”Р‡OREWORD TO THE SECOND EDITION РІР‚вЂў On the Publication of the Second Edition of Minna no Nihongo Shokyu РІР‚вЂў 3A Corporation intends to continue extending its network of friendship all over the world through activities such as the publishing of Japanese study materials, and we hope that everyone who knows us will continue to lend us their unstinting encouragement and support in this. In conclusion, I should like to mention the extensive help we received in the preparation of this text, in the form of suggestions and comments from various quarters, and trials of the materials in actual lessons, for which we are extremely grateful. We at 3A Corporation are continuing actively to produce new study materials designed to meet the individual needs of an increasingly wide range of learners, and we sincerely hope that readers will continue to give us their valued support. While it is intended principally for those who have already left full-time education, it can also be recommended as an excellent textbook for university entrance courses as well as for short-term intensive courses at technical colleges and universities. Although it is an introductory text, efforts have been made to make the exchanges between Japanese and foreign characters in the book reРїВ¬вЂљect Japanese social conditions and everyday life as faithfully as possible. Minna no Nihongo is aimed at anyone who urgently needs to learn to communicate in Japanese in any situation, whether at work, school, college or in their local community. Its contents have been enhanced in this way to allow all kinds of students to use it for studying Japanese with pleasure. While the book continues to make use of the clarity and ease of understanding provided by the special features, key learning points and learning methods of Shin Nihongo no Kiso, the scenes, situations and characters in Minna no Nihongo have been made more universal in order to appeal to a wider range of learners.

It is against this background, and in response to the opinions and hopes expressed by a large number of people who have been involved in the teaching of Japanese for many years both in Japan and elsewhere, that 3A Corporation proudly publishes Minna no Nihongo. There is now a greater diversity of learning needs, and they require individual responses. The changes in the social milieu surrounding the teaching of Japanese that have resulted from this inРїВ¬вЂљux of people from other countries have in turn inРїВ¬вЂљuenced the individual situations in which Japanese is taught. Japanese economic and industrial growth has led to a greater level of interchange between Japan and other countries, and non-Japanese from a wide variety of backgrounds have come to Japan with a range of different objectives and are now living within local communities here. The teaching of Japanese is branching out in many different ways. As such, although it was originally developed for use by AOTSРїСвЂЎs technical trainees, it is now used by a wide range of people both in Japan and abroad.

As readers may know, Shin Nihongo no Kiso is a comprehensive introduction to elementary Japanese that serves as a highly efРїВ¬Рѓcient resource enabling students wishing to master basic Japanese conversation to do so in the shortest possible time. Over three years in the planning and compilation, it stands as a complete textbook in itself while acting as a companion volume to the highly-regarded Shin Nihongo no Kiso.
