Review #26 | Sakubi | Learn Japanese For Free

This review is for Sakubi's grammar guide. I would recommend it for all levels of learners. Basically covers all the basics for Japanese grammar for self taught learners or people sick of weird, random textbooks. Highly recommended along with Imabi and Tae Kim for grammar.

What

This is a giant compilation of grammar in a 2000's webpage style. 

The site is organised by the guide, which is around 54-58 lessons which are intended to be done in a quick turnaround time. 

Useful for people who are self-taught, and also as a complement to Tae Kim. Will probably return to this review once I have got around to finishing that tome first.

Where

Online at https://sakubi.neocities.org/

Who

Sakubi belongs to its creator Sakubi person. 

Other people involved include:

A grammar guide to Japanese (Tae Kim).

Forum users of the Daily Japanese Thread; Alexander Vovin, Thomas Pellard, Sven Osterkamp and I am guessing Ixrec and kWhazit.

Imabi belongs to Seth Coonrod & Taylor V Edwards.

Steve at Nihongonomori.

Writers of  A Reference Grammar of Japanese (Martin), A History of the Japanese Language (Frellesvig), A Dictionary of Japanese Grammar series, A Dictionary of Japanese Particles (Kawashima), Visualizing Japanese Grammar series.

Yan and the Japanese People (Let's Learn Japanese 1&2).

These all have many, many people involved in these projects whom I would love to highlight if they wish to be.

When

Available if you have internet.

Began in 2017 and completed.

Why

This work is known in the backlogs of the deep dark 2000's internet sites as *the site* for Japanese grammar (I am of the word and aesthetic nerd variety). Thats why, also it seems the creator was actually familiar with linguists and textbooks after 2015 which for Japanese is a miracle.

Also, this may just be me, but it's nice to have something in one place to help consolidate and check against your assumptions and presumptions, as well as to have access to in the case of your textbooks being. Textbooks.
