Reviews for 600 Basic Japanese Verbs
"Verbs are usually the key to understanding a sentence or part of a text, so it's well worth emphasizing them … If you know these 600 verbs that's really going to help unlock a lot of Japanese for you.'"
How to Japan blog "This book excels at differentiating really similar concepts, even adding more to the never-ending question of 'What is the difference between [this character] and [this character]?' The vocabulary words are also thematically arranged, usually with illustrations for some words for better memory reinforcement. Pronunciation in the CD tracks actually sounds natural compared to other learning materials"
