800 Essential Kanji for the JLPT N1

This excellent compact-sized book from highly recommended Japanese language education publishers, Ask, is part of a series of kanji study guides that cover each level of the JLPT. This installment is designed to help readers learn the kanji necessary to pass the N1 level of the JLPT. There is a comprehensive guide to the 800 kanji required for the N1, arranged by corresponding radicals, helping the reader to recognize the differences between similar-looking kanji and supporting visual memory cues. Each numbered kanji has a breakdown of the order of strokes to help you practice writing it yourself. The kun yomi and on yomi for each kanji are, of course, also provided, with readings that you need to know for the N1 printed in red and the other readings printed in black. 

In addition, the book also gives you related vocabulary using each of the 800 kanji, with English and Vietnamese translations. These words were specifically chosen by having a high probability of coming up in the vocabulary section on the N1 level test, and provide great examples of the different readings of the kanji you need to know.
