Another Japanese Kanji book

Kanji & Kana: Handbook and Dictionary of the Japanese Writing System



 This book shows related words, which will grow your muscle of trying to connect more with the roots of the words.

The other day someone who learned Arabic as a child. was asked if he remembered the word for "no exit" , I wondered why that special word. Next day, while dropping the kid at an event, at a construction site near by, I saw the

 No Exit Sin Silada sign.

Then it made sense.

no entry

no exit

入場禁止

退場禁止

Nyūjō kinshi 

taijō kinshi

Especially important signs, when you are driving.

mamnue aldukhul 

mamnue alkhuruj

Now able to pick some of the onyumi and kunyumi from he book.
