I never thought to ever ask these people where did they get that, but the question I had was why am I continually coming into contact with foreigners whose first language was not English who managed to speak English as good if not better than some native born English speakers; especially when everyone kept saying English was one of the most difficult languages?Well the Shadowing technique can greatly help that problem. This book is well thought out in the phrases it gives you to Shadow and the progression from simple to more complex phrases is just perfect. It's not just a phrase book on steroids though, as it teaches you to listen so that you can give the proper response. In a language like Japanese where status is important you are given examples at every politeness level.I don't know why Shadowing books aren't out there for more languages, though I guess a person could cobble together Shadowing materials together. Still it's very good to have it organized and right there in front of you. If you're learning Japanese and you want to develop an authentic Japanese accent, shadowing is a great tool. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the best techniques for listening comprehension and speaking Japanese/a foreign language *by S***H on Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2015* I heard about this book on YouTube and have been wanting to try it out for a while. Shadowing seems to be growing more steam in the language learning community. This is the only shadowing book I know of; although there are other Shadowing programs I hear about now like Etoeto for Japanese. This book is another Japanese learning book made for a wide group of foreigners, hence more than English translations for the Japanese in the book. I have an undergraduate degree in Japanese and I've studied abroad in Japan, so I know most of the Japanese in this book, but I want to improve my speaking abilities. This book has about 4 methods of shadowing they suggest you can use while going through this book and the Japanese they use is natural. It really what you'll hear in Japan. You have to listen to the audio over and over repeatedly to get the most out of this program. The translations are not direct translations, but they are good. I plan on buying the second book. I used this program with a relative who speak basically no Japanese and she remembered and spoke more phrases after a few short sessions using this program. I wish I had started out with shadowing when I began learning Japanese. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Effective at improving fluency *by A***Y on Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2017* My fluency and prosody are improving each day I use this, and I only use it 10-15 minutes a day. The conversations seem very real-life, not straight out of a textbook. (And therefore one should have some grounding in grammar and syntax while using this book.) I sometimes find myself repeating some of the phrases during the day, as they're getting burned into my memory. I'm just sorry that there aren't more sections in this book, as at the recommended pace of about one section a month, I'll be done with it in another couple of months. But since the latter sections are more difficult, I think I'll want to continue using them for much longer, and then I'll purchase the intermediate-advanced version. The print is relatively small, especially the furigana; I have to wear reading glasses. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.de/products/66821872-shadowing-lets-speak-japanese-beginner-to-intermediate-edition](https://www.desertcart.de/products/66821872-shadowing-lets-speak-japanese-beginner-to-intermediate-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Germany* *Store origin: DE* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
