Michel Thomas- Japanese complete course

Japanese is spoken by 126 million people both in Japan and around the world, especially in North and South America. It is the second language of older Chinese and Korean people who either live in Japan or had to learn Japanese; and is the fifth most popular foreign language in the USA and a popular non-European language in secondary schools in the UK. Even if you have never studied Japanese before, because of the huge economic and cultural influence Japan has had worldwide, you will almost certainly be already familiar with some Japanese words like karaoke, origami, sushi and manga!
