Review: The explanations are clear and easy to understand - (I am still learning beginning Japanese--I know enough to be dangerous, but am not even at JLPT5 yet, I suspect--so take this review with a grain of salt.) Calling this book a dictionary is very appropriate, because that's exactly what it is. Having it at your side to look up grammar points (either what something means or how to say something) is invaluable. The explanations are clear and easy to understand, and the example sentences with translations help to solidify and further clarify the meanings of the grammar points and how to use them. There are many times when the explanations in my primary learning sources were confusing or ambiguous, and looking up those grammar points in this book has so far always cleared things up for me. This book won't guide you through learning Japanese, but it doesn't claim to. It does exactly what it says on the cover, and does an outstanding job of it. I absolutely recommend it as a reference to have on hand while learning Japanese. As I advance in my Japanese, I definitely plan to buy the next books in the series as well.
Review: Great detailed explanations - This book is an absolute life-changer. I have been studying Japanese for two years and learned from the Nakama series. This book explains a lot of questions we often asked in class with little to no explanation. This is by far the best supplemental material I've found that explains everything in a brief, but clear, manner. It also explains how similar grammar points are related and has different examples and explains how each example might be slightly different. I suggested it to several class mates and they immediately were raving on how this book explained things so easily and thoroughly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must for any learner of Japanese
*by A***R on November 21, 2023*

I've been studying Japanese for 3 years now (I'm somewhere around JLPT N3 level), and thought I wouldn't get much out of this book that I already knew. I initially bought it as a reference, but then wound up just reading it straight through. I'm about halfway through it now. It's true that a lot of what I'm reading is review, but it has really been filling in a lot of gaps, clarifying things I've only learned through context, and is also covering grammar I'm not familiar with. "Basic" is not necessarily "Beginner." I never expected a grammar book to be so engaging, but I learn something every time I open it. Unless you're a native Japanese speaker, I can't think of any situation where buying this book would be regretted.
