日本人の知らない日本語4 (Nihonjin no Shiranai Nihongo 4)
from PuniPuniJapan

Absolutely hilarious and educational book. Best seller in Japan. 日本人の知らない日本語 (Nihonjin no shiranai nihongo) - "The Japanese the Japanese Don't Know" - is a collection of stories about a teacher of Japanese in Japan and her students, what sort of questions they ask, what sort of mistakes they make, etc. There's also a lot of interesting background on the Japanese language, like where certain words came from and such. For example, masu/desu is now standard Japanese, but it used to be geisha-speak. Men came to the capital, heard geisha speaking that way, and took it home and spread it, thinking it was the way everyone in the capital spoke. There was also a lot about keigo (formal speaking), and how even Japanese people get it wrong a lot. Highly recommended for intermediate/advanced Japanese students. All kanji with furigana reading.
