While many international students are able to express their opinions in spoken Japanese, they cannot succinctly express themselves in the written word when writing reports or essays, causing difficulties with their studies. Here is a textbook that tackles that issue.

In order for students to convey their thoughts correctly in Japanese, this book shows them how to paraphrase what they want to say in order to more succinctly convey their message.

Through various types of paraphrase practice exercises, grasping the alternative meanings of words and ways of expressing things, and learning how to quote from other documents and materials, students will improve their writing skills.
