あちら is same above あそこmeans over there, that place そちらis politeness way to speak of そこ means that way, there こちらis the politeness way to speak of ここ means this way, here.
In interrogative sentence どこ is the question word for this type. あそこ over there, place physically distance from both speaker and listener そこ means there place relatively near listener
ここ means here place relatively near speaker In lesson 2 had shown some demonstrative pronouns, the lesson 3 will introduce some others. In the lesson 3 of Minna learners will continue with the vocabulary following the subject and some new structures, and the subject of the dialogue in this lesson is about Department store.įirst vocabulary, it will divide into 5 groups: demonstrative pronouns, building, counters, money and how to give charge, the last is some communicative structures.
Since you have to learn a lot, the more you can connect and memorize, the better it is.(for shorter summary, check here : Summary of Minna no nihongo coursebook lesson 3) It's probably easier to make connections between kanji that way. In hindsight, I think it might have been better if they'd produced a kanji book separate from the vocabulary lists, with themes per chapter, for example 'body parts' or something similar. In other words, there's no real logic behind the learning order, other than 'this is the order of your vocabulary lists'. You won't learn some of the very basic kanji until much later, because the words don't turn up until lesson 15 (the case for 口, mouth, and 目, eye, to name a few). However, it's not always very useful that the kanji lessons are so intrinsically tied to the main lessons in the other books. It uses a lot of pictures in general so you can tie kanji to certain situations or images. This first volume is very useful as it explains where certain kanji came from: with little pictures to show how you can actually see a bird in the kanji for bird, 鳥, for example, it is really helpful when you're prone to visualization when learning. For the kanji books, I have some separate comments. It uses a lot of pictures in general so you can tie kanji to certain The same applies as for all my minna no nihongo books: it's great to work with in class, very understandable and well explained.
