Hospitality Press The Hospitality English-Japanese Dictionary
Book SynopsisThis learner's dictionary has an emphasis on the language used in hospitality, tourism and business situations involving Japanese language in general. The dictionary should suit users who have some knowledge of the language but who are not comfortable reading written Japanese. It therefore uses a romaji script.

Unlike most other dictionaries, this dictionary concentrates on spoken rather than written language. Both everyday and more polite expressions are given, allowing hospitality providers to master the language that Japanese visitors and clients should find appropriate, and avoiding embarrassment from inappropriate usage. Useful appendixes explain some detailed topics, and the introductory notes contain helpful information about speech styles, structure and pronunciation.Table of ContentsAcknowledgements The Authors About the Dictionary Who will find the dictionary useful? Why is the dictionary different? Politeness in Japanese Speech styles; The plain style; The standard polite style; The extra-polite style; Humble speech; Respectful speech; Examples of speech styles.
