On the other hand, sometimes the specific meaning of groupings of known kanji or phrases is not always clear and a good dictionary (such as Tagaini Jisho) is very useful, ranging from 「運用」(うんよう)"Making use of, application, investment, practical use" to particles you thought you knew but the specific use in context isn't clear. 「のに」"And yet, despite this, even though, but even so, but even then, however, nevertheless, for all that, notwithstanding that".<br /><br />The textbook can be used for solo study, but was written partly for a classroom environment where there's someone to ask for help.
