This is a reference book for Donglish, by Mr. Taizo Itoyama of Donguri Club, covering grades 7-9 (junior high school). There are no markings, and it is in beautiful condition as shown in the photos. The original price was ¥30,000. I believe it is quite difficult to obtain now. What is Donglish? "Think in English, with pictures" Donglish is a completely new English acquisition method developed by Mr. Taizo Itoyama, the founder of Donguri Club. It aims to understand English through the human's original thought process of **"visual images (pictures)"**, rather than simple memorization and repetition. 1. Do not translate, do not memorize It does not perform the conventional one-to-one replacement (translation) of "English words ⇄ Japanese". By drawing the "core image" of English words as pictures in the brain, it creates a circuit to understand directly without going through Japanese. 2. Apply "absolute academic ability of thinking" to English Similar to the "high-quality math word problems" that are the hallmark of Donguri Club, it emphasizes the process of **"carefully sketching the scene in your head"** while reading English sentences. This cultivates not only English ability but also lifelong "thinking skills (thinking ability)". 3. Grasp the "core" of words Even words that become complex when translated into Japanese, such as prepositions and basic verbs, are grasped in Donglish through images of their unique "movement" and "shape". A message (essence) from Mr. Itoyama Based on the idea that "words are the shadows of images," the essence of Donglish is to cultivate the ability to manipulate the images (concepts) themselves, rather than chasing the shadows (letters and sounds).
