Question about the GENKI workbooks! Do I need to buy edition 1 and 2? Hello everyone! I will be buying some text books to help me study Japanese. I've done some research on the Genki books and they seem to be a good choice! Although they are quite expensive.. I plan on buying the second edition genki 1 as well as the answer key. I would also like to buy the section edition genki 2, but I don't know if it is necessary yet? Do I need both to excel? Or can I just buy Genki 1 and answer key for the time being and still learn what I need? One more thing! Should I learn hiragana before buying genki? I read somewhere that you should, but I also heard it does teach hiragana too? I'm just confused, and very excited at the same time!! -.-' Thank you very much for reading! Christine
