Story
Do you find Japanese grammar hard to digest and boring? You’re not alone. Did you know that grammar is the number-one obstacle most new students struggle with when learning Japanese? Japanese grammar is the complete opposite to English, and the hardest part is trying to adapt. Learning language structures, different tenses and conjugation can be too much to handle. Most Japanese books are full of boring linguistic jargon that you will hardly ever use. You can easily get lost and have to spend time going back to revisit topics - only to be confused even more.

Soseki Natsume's comic masterpiece, I Am a Cat, satirizes the foolishness of upper-middle class Japanese society during the Meiji era. With acerbic wit and sardonic perspective, it follows the whimsical adventures of a world-weary stray kitten who comments on the follies and foibles of the people around him. A classic of Japanese literature, I Am a Cat is one of Soseki's best-known novels. Considered by many as the greatest writer in modern Japanese history, Soseki's I Am a Cat is a classic novel sure to be enjoyed for years to come.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Story
Grammar! For many of us, the word triggers memories of finger-wagging schoolteachers, and of wrestling with the ambiguous and complicated rules of using formal language. But what is grammar? In fact, it's the integral basis of how we speak and write. As such, a refined awareness of grammar opens a world of possibilities for both your pleasure in the English language and your skill in using it, in both speech and the written word.

A survey of the quirks and quandaries of the English language, focusing on our strange and wonderful grammar. Why do we say "I am reading a catalog" instead of "I read a catalog"? Why do we say "do" at all? Is the way we speak a reflection of our cultural values?

I'm lucky to have found this!
This particular audiobook has been a tremendous help in learning intermediate Japanese. The format is very natural and makes learning at this level very approachable, all intermediate grammar points are well explained. The articles are an excellent way to learn relevant Japanese words and the articles are actually interesting, I enjoyed listening to them so it didn't feel like hard work to learn hundreds of new vocabulary words. The test questions were super helpful in making sure I understand everything as I went along. Also, I loved how you can download the pdf from the publishers website. This audiobook is a gem!

Very Good Intermediate Resource
I have been studying Japanese for almost seven years with a variety of tools, and this audiobook has a wealth of information for the intermediate learner. The organization of the lessons has an article read in small sections with grammar and vocabulary bits between each section. Then the article is read in Japanese, summarized in English, and there is a short quiz on the content.
One of the tools I often used to help myself was language podcasts, and this is very much like you will find in the languagepod101 podcasts. For those of you familiar with that, the similar structure should make it easy to pick up the material.
The grammar is definitely intermediate Japanese. If you are only a beginner, you will find using this frustrating, but an intermediate learner like myself will have no trouble finding the texts enriching. I plan on listening to the articles again until I get through the material without consulting anything in English.
My default Audible app setting is to listen to materials at 1.25 speed. I listened to Pimsleur Japanese 4 on that speed without difficulty, but that was almost too fast for this. So as a study tip, I do recommend you slow down your playback speed if you need to.
I didn’t care for the male narrator’s voice, but that’s a personal preference. He was easy to understand and was not otherwise problematic. The female narrator spoke quickly but sounded otherwise standard Japanese and not dialect. I also didn’t care for some of the advice aspects of the texts, but it might have been because I heard them in male English narrator’s voice.
The best audience for this is an intermediate Japanese learner (no surprise). You’ll expand your grammar, especially with different verb structures. Do take advantage of the supplementary PDF with full lesson information, including full texts of the articles.
Truth in reviewing: I received this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

Great Resource for Intermediate Japanese Learners!
What did you love best about Master Intermediate Japanese?
The teaching method and quality of the information provided was excellent! This book is the perfect level of Japanese I am practicing and it has been a great resource for me!
What was one of the most memorable moments of Master Intermediate Japanese?
The discussion early on about anime! (^。^)
Would you listen to another book narrated by David Michaels and Ryoko Yasuno ?
Being an audio engineer and voice artist myself I'm probably a little hard to please, but the quality of the audio recording was a little lacking. However, the content of the book itself more than made up for it. So assuming content future products by David and and Ryoko is of the same standard, I can deal with the audio quality!
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It just made me super excited to be learning more Japanese!

Great Listening Practic
After not using Japanese much for over 25 years, I decided to start reviewing. I was worried this would be too difficult, but it isn't. I don't understand occasional words, but the accompanying PDF helps with that. It's great for reviewing my Kanji also. I hope they come out w/ more audiobooks like this, although I'm guessing there are tons of youtube videos, etc. This was easy to listen to on my phone and had a nice variety of topics.
