  Are there any good ones that aren't writen in ROMAJI? I'm reading Japanese for dummies. I try to read the hiragana when talking and unfortunately ALOT of the text in hiragana and kanjiis has omissions or mistakes. Especially the particles are sometimes inversed from the phonetic text in the hiragana text. I already know how to pronounce all the hiragana and katakana, so having it spelled phonetically through an entire book isn't of much value to me past this point.

  I'd also be curious to buy a Kanjii / English or French dictionary that has no Romaji in it. And instead writes the hiragana above the kanjii.

  I looked through about 2 dozen books so far and they're all in phonetic romaji from start to finish or they don't tell you the proper hiragana to type the kanjiis as.

  Thanks and god bless ya.

  I'd even settle for website lessons that don't write the phonetical spelling.
