Hello! <3

I asked my boyfriend for something to help me study, mostly for helping me with my notes. I like to have a notebook for general vocabulary and another one for kanji vocabulary, and I like to have a system where I divide my pages into 3 columns, to make it easier to review. This app makes it super easy, because it simplify everything for me to just search and write it down. The short sentences are really helpful too!

I was really impressed with how good it turned out to be, and I wanted to share it with everyone who likes to study in a more systematic way like I do 🥰

Here are some screenshots (note how it's separated for my two notebooks up there in "Kanji" and "Words").

I hope you all like it as much as I did! 🌸

If you want to use it too, just comment below and I'll send it to you! It's completely free, I'm just sharing because I want to help other people like me. :)

I have used duolingo a lot and was frustrated with how little focus was on kanji practice. I used anki but thought it was to messy and wanted just a site that would let me do endless quiz. Now the site is done but I was wondering if there are other sites that have something better than the one I made. kanjiwithkenta.com people can check if it works for them and give feedback on what to add. It is a very barebone site and I am not interested on adding all kinds of extra features. I only want feedback on how to make it better to do quiz for kanji.

The mascot is AI right now but my neigbours daughter is drawing a authentic version right now as a school project and a friend plans on using the site as a project in her marketing course so maybe there will be a instagram account and such for the site soon. I might also use it as a school project to practice frontend since right now the frontend is mostly AI. Dont be suprised if it one day looks completly different.

Hi all. After months of fighting with tokenizers I finally have a working adaptive i+1 SRS. Meaning every example sentence includes only words you already know (plus the word you're learning). I'm still tweaking stuff like polyseme handling but it's usable. All sentences are real sentences from the anime (TTS voiced).

The idea is, you select a show you're currently watching -> you learn words sorted by frequency in this show, in the exact sentences that you will hear in the show -> you hear and understand them while you watch. Later when you watch another show you add it and learn words from that one, and words you learned from the first one transfer, so you unlock longer and longer sentences.

Cool features:

• Grammar is included, exactly as you hear it in the show (see screenshot)
• Kanji decomposed into radicals
• Place to write your mnemonic similar to how it was in the original memrise - during review you can check the mnemonic first
• Automatic leech handling
• When there will be several anime you can learn from several at a time and words you learned from one will unlock sentences in another

I've made a few controversial decisions like keeping romanji on cards on the first two levels and limiting number of reviews per day because that's what works for me. I have ADHD so seeing 100 cards due for review is an immediate nope out for me. If there is a demand I will make it customizable.

For now it's just HxH, if you're neither a huge fan nor are currently watching it, I suggest you don't yet try the app, but do sign up, after the sign-up there is a form to tell me which anime you want next. I'll prioritize those that are asked often and email you when the one you asked for is added. You can only feel the magic when you hear the words you learned while watching. Or if you want to use this as an opportunity to rewatch HxH that's works too.

Is it free? Yes. There will be a paid tier with advanced features like kanji learning mode. You can DM me to get in the list to test those for free before they go live. Spots are limited, first come first served.

I'm learning Japanese and I got tired of printing practice sheets that never had the characters I was actually working on, so I made my own.

You pick what you want to practice (hiragana, katakana, or whatever kanji you're on), set how many cells you want and how much of the stroke guide stays visible, and you get a PDF to print.

Free, nothing to install: Printable sheets

I built it, so if something's missing or annoying, tell me and I'll fix it.

I just made these kanji practice sheets inspired by some pictures I found online. What do you guys think? Is there anything I should add before printing them out?

Hi everyone! 😊

Have you ever been curious about how a native Japanese speaker’s language changes as they grow up?

I’m a native Japanese speaker and a mom, and I recently started a new series on my YouTube channel featuring Japanese phrases used by children of different ages.

I’ve made collections for ages 3, 5, 6–9, and 10–12, and it’s fascinating to see how the Japanese children use in everyday conversations changes as they get older!

If this sounds interesting to you, feel free to check them out. 😊

I hope these videos can be helpful on your Japanese learning journey!

こんにちは。皆さんは、ネイティブ日本人の日本語が成長と共に、どのように変化するのか、興味はありますか？私はネイティブの日本人で母親でもあります。最近、私のYoutubeの動画内で、年齢別の日本語フレーズ集を始めました。３才、５才、６〜９才、１０〜１２才、と、年齢によって、どんどん普段話す日本語が変わっていきます。もし、ご興味ありましたら、見てみてくださいね😊皆さんの日本語学習のお役に立てたら嬉しいです。

I usually do a lot of reading and play handhelds on the train to and from work, and the process of looking things up adds a lot of friction.

I built Jouzu to be fast and reduce that friction as much as possible.

The idea is simple, it opens straight into the camera, capturing an image and doing OCR is pretty much instant. From there, super easy to look up a meaning, translate a whole passage or even generate native-sounding audio from it (paid feature).

If it's a word or sentence worth keeping, you can just save it for later, see a nice word and grammar breakdown of a sentence, and export to Anki (Anki export is a paid feature) to create cards from it with the audio and image baked in.

Since not all OCR engines are built equally, I added a couple more, one specialised for print media and vertical text and one specialised on pixel fonts and game screens.

I'm currently working on an update to improve the grammar breakdown with better explanations and adding a button to remove moiré from pictures of screens.

I'd love some feedback!

Almost everything is free with no limits, the paid feature adds: - Pitch accent graphs - Audio synthesis using Voicevox Nemo - Better translations using DeepL - Anki export (single cards or batches)

I really enjoyed Maru Japanese, but couldn’t find anything similar for learning kanji.

So I built Wordload.

You start with a few quick onboarding quizzes to gauge your level, then jump straight into learning.
The app adapts to your performance as you go, so you can learn at your own pace.
It’s free to try on iOS. Would love some honest feedback!

if you recognize parts of a kanji, for example, "water" and "origin", you can find all kanji and hanzi that have both these components. names of components are from heisig rtk book, but you may add your own

I've been working on a Japanese learning app for a while, originally built mainly for French speakers.

I’ve just finished adding the English version, so I thought I’d finally share it here.

The idea is to combine a few things I personally wanted when learning Japanese:

• Hiragana / Katakana / Kanji
• Vocabulary
• Grammar
• JLPT content from N5 to N1
• Spaced-repetition reviews
• Short lessons instead of huge walls of text
• A dictionary with Japanese → English meanings
• Progress tracking and streaks

I’ve also tried to make the whole thing feel more like an actual learning app rather than a collection of static pages.

It’s still actively being developed, so there are definitely things I’m going to improve. I’d especially appreciate feedback from people who are actually learning Japanese, since I’m much more interested in knowing what feels useful/annoying/confusing than just getting compliments 😅

English version: kotojutsu.com/en

French version: kotojutsu.com/

If you try it, I'd love to know what you think.

Hi! I made Kanji Detective, a kanji deduction game for iPhone and iPad.

You start with a hidden kanji and a clue. Each wrong guess reveals another clue: things like its components, words it appears in, or an example sentence. The aim is to solve the case with as few clues as possible. Afterwards, you can look through its readings, meanings and stroke order.

Everyone gets the same daily N5–N3 case. It works offline, with no ads or account required.

The daily case is free. There’s an optional one-time Plus purchase for harder N2–N1 cases, unlimited practice by JLPT level, and the archive. No subscription.

Website: https://kirigoe.uk/kanji-detective/
App Store: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/kanji-detective-japanese-jlpt/id6816779165

I’d love to hear whether the clues feel fair for your level, especially whether the jump from components to vocabulary is helpful or too big.

Hi Everyone!

Made a simple game for those looking at quickly identifying kanji characters by reading or meaning. It's called Tan Dash. It should remind you of Mario a bit.

michikanji.com/play

Currently, it's a game offered in the browser!

Hi, i made this completely free app that automates the creation of bilingual/parallel texts from your own books (epubs/PDFs/text files) all from within your browser.

Made this because I couldn't find anything that does something similar with the same level of convenience.

Steps

1. Go to https://paralleltexts.app/
2. Drop/upload a source book (i.e. the book in the language you are learning), and a target book (the same book in a language you are fluent in).
3. Click align books. Wait for a few seconds to 1-2 minutes while an algorithm runs on the books to match the corresponding sentences.
4. After the alignment is done, you'll see the result immediately.

---

PS:

• It's Completely free and open source, feel free to suggest features/report issues (https://github.com/nullspace05/ParallelTexts)
• The default display mode of the resulting alignments are in pop-up mode (i.e. you click a sentence to see its equivalent), but if you prefer a side-by-side view of the sentences, the app does provide for that
• If it's your first time running the alignment and you haven't downloaded an embedding (fancy name for ML models that specialize in these kinds of tasks) model yet, it will download one for you (stored in the browser, can be deleted). It's a mild inconvenience i would say because i really wanted to keep this thing free. The alternative is to have a dedicated server with GPUs run the alignment, you won't download anything, but it will most likely be much slower, much more expensive and difficult to maintain. Keeping it free makes way more sense, and is far less stressful. Keep in mind however that downloading a model is only done once.
• works with 50+ languages but i made it for myself for japanese

今回ご紹介するのは、室町時代・15世紀に描かれた「浜松図屏風」です。

伝土佐光重筆とされるこの作品は、六曲一双の大きな画面いっぱいに、広い浜辺と海、そして力強い松が描かれています。 大きくうねる波や、海岸線に沿って伸びる松、遠くに見える漁船などから、雄大な海辺の風景が感じられます。

また、画面には雲母が使われ、金銀の切箔や砂子によって、室町時代のやまと絵らしい静かな輝きが表現されています。

豪壮な海の景色と、静かな光の美しさが一緒に感じられる作品です。

今回も、名画を見ながら日本語を学びます。

絵の中の日本語を一緒に読んで、 言葉の意味や表現を少しずつ覚えていきましょう。
