Reading Japanese Technical Documents

A six-page handbook for engineers, buyers and team leaders in Vietnam working with Japanese customer documents. Each document type has three parts: structure, common misreadings and vocabulary. Specifications: seven typical sections, 以上 versus 未満, 準拠 versus 参考, and acceptance conditions. QC process charts: a sample line read cell by cell, how to fill it in and handle abnormalities. Work instructions: the columns and why the key-point column matters most. Catalogues: reading Misumi and Omron part numbers. Plus vocabulary for consumables, spare parts and ordering, counter words and twenty-one phrases for asking and confirming.
