Read Real Japanese!
I decided to put together an informational video about different methods that I have used to study Japanese. Obviously, everyone learns in different ways but I really wanted to showcase a few things that have done wonders for me. In particular, I wanted to showcase a book from Kodansha titled 'Read Real Japanese Fiction,' which is an excellent book that came out last year. It includes short stories (both in Japanese and English versions) from: Hiromi Kawakami (川上 弘美) Otsuichi (乙一) Shinji Ishii ( 石井) Banana Yoshimoto (よしもと ばなな) Kaoru Kitamura (北村薫) Yoko Tawada (多和田葉子) Here's the official site from Kodansha for that book: www.kodansha-intl.com I also go over some other reading materials, such as different textbooks (the genki books), manga, japanese books, and video games. There's also a bit about electronic dictionaries and my favorite Kanji dictionary. Hopefully something in this video inspires you to find your own to better study the Japanese language. 頑張りましょうね。 more info on the New Nelson Dictionary: en.wikipedia.org Online Japanese-English dictionary that I like: www.csse.monash.edu.au my blog, now with new updates and links on the side for teaching in Japan: www.tokyoswan.blogspot.com

メニューイン式バイオリンの構え方
山本バイオリン教室→www.d3.dion.ne.jp 今回は２０世紀を代表するバイオリニスト、教師のユーディ・メニューインによるバイオリンの構え方を少しだけご説明させていただきました。 前回ご説明させていただいた方法と違って、今回は左指の付け根（第３関節）は極力ネックから距離を置いて空けておく方法で主に左親指の腹で楽器を支えます。 この方法で重要なことは親指を反らしたり立てたりして力が入らないように柔軟にしておくことです。 この方法で高い位置で楽器が構えられると背筋も伸び、左肩も自由になります。 また左人差し指の付け根が常に空いているのですぐにビブラートをかけることができます。 親指と人差し指の間にネックが落ちないように左ひじを結構内側に入れます。 今までネックを左人差し指の付け根で支えられていた方にとってはなかなか思うように音程が押さえられない感覚がはじめはあると思います。 ゆっくり音階練習からおさらいをされることをお薦めします。 同じ肩当なしの構え方で人差し指の付け根で楽器を支える、プリムローズ式の楽器の構え方はこちらをご覧ください。 www.youtube.com
