About this listen

Are you on your way towards learning Japanese and need a new challenge?

We’re constantly trying to improve and master new skills, and the Japanese language is no exception. A skill that can help open important doors in business and tourism, knowing Japanese will lead you towards a huge number of opportunities in life that will be worth every second dedicated to your studies.

Because of this, we have created the next level of Japanese stories for the students who have already surpassed the beginner level: Intermediate Japanese Short Stories!

In this book, we have compiled 10 challenging, compelling, and fun stories that will allow you to expand your vocabulary and give you the tools to boost your grasp of the wonderful Japanese tongue.

How Intermediate Japanese Short Stories works:

  • Each chapter possesses a funny, interesting and/or thought-provoking story based on real-life situations, allowing you to learn about the Japanese culture.
  • Having trouble understanding Japanese characters? No problem - despite being Intermediate Japanese, we have still included a romanization to help guide you through your learning process, just like in the beginner stories!
  • The summaries follow the story: a synopsis in Japanese and in English of what you just listened to, both to review the lesson and for you to see if you understood what the tale was about. Use them if you’re having trouble.
  • At the end of those summaries, you’ll be provided with a list of the most relevant vocabulary involved in the lesson, as well as slang and sayings that you may not have understood at first glance! Don’t get lost trying to understand or pronounce it all, either, as all of the vocabulary words are romanized for your ease of learning!
  • Finally, you’ll be provided with a set of tricky questions in Japanese, allowing you the chance to prove that you learned something in the story. Don’t worry if you don’t know the answer to any - we will provide them immediately after, but no cheating!

We want you to feel comfortable while mastering the Japanese tongue; after all, no language should be a barrier for you to travel around the world and expand your social circles!

So look no further! Pick up your copy of Intermediate Japanese Short Stories and level up your Japanese language learning right now!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great audiobook for intermediate learners

The stories are engaging and the vocabulary and questions sections are very useful. The difficulty level is in the sweet spot.

Comprehensible input essential

I very highly recommend reading and listening to this book after going through the beginner volume. This book is only slightly more advanced, which makes it very accessible. I wish there were more books like this!

Great stories and narrator

The stories are great and at a good difficulty for intermediate learners. I'm still upper beginner at best but I still found it useful (but challenging). The books comes with a PDF to read while you listen which is super helpful. 100% recommend this book.

Not for beginners.

When I discovered this book and the instructions it provides on how to use the material, I was so delighted that I immediately got the book. I found it annoying that you had to sign up for Audible in order to hear the stories read; in my opinion, it is a terrible way to promote a book.

Awful

It is incredibly challenging for someone who has been practicing with the erroneous technique of writing the ki/sa sound because almost all of the Japanese I encounter does not match the style of the book.

Not very useful.

I was listening to the audio and was so bewildered when I saw this website. In addition, the audio is good and corresponds to the romaji and English explanations.
