Abstract:

The 60.000 items provided by the Shin-Meikai Nihongo Akusento Jiten are
transliterated for the benefit of all learners, linguists and phoneticians,
who are not (yet) fully at ease with Japanese ‘ideograms’, but are interested
in this important language.

However, the alphabetical order in not Latin, but the Japanese syllabic one,
more in keeping with more advanced users. Anyway, people who just need to find
out examples, either for linguistic expositions or teaching/learning purposes,
can also find the dictionary useful.

Furthermore, unlike its original source, the pronunciation of Japanese is
exaustively dealt with in the introductory chapters, following the Natural
Phonotonetics Method, by means of accurate transcriptions and precise
articulatory and tonetic figures.

Of course, the authors’ Japanese Pronunciation & Accents provides more
information, including intonation and transcriptions, in addition to other
accents, including 20 regional and 17 foreign ones.
