This if the FREE version of JLPT Study, Level 1-5 Japanese Language Proficiency, containing all of level N5 Kanji (103) and all the roughly 714 words in the level N5 list.
This application will help you study the vocabulary for the Japanese Language Proficiency Tests (JLPT).
The JLPT (日本語能力試験 nihongo nōryoku shiken) is a standardized test for evaluating the Japanese language proficiency for non-japanese.
The study mode is based on interval as this will effectively reinforce your long term memory of the words.
The interval study will increase the time until next study for a word for each time the word is marked as known. If a word is not known, its score will be reduced and you will have to study it more often until its score has been restored. This makes you focus on words not yet memorized.
As each level contains quite a lot of words, the study set (number of words) can be limited. From the selected set, only the words valid for study (according to the chosen study mode) can be studied. Add more words if the number of due words is zero but you still want to move on.
Each time you start a new study, the selected words will be randomized. After the study session is over, you will see how many words you knew and also where you are in your goal to complete the level.
* Interval study
* Full set of compounds for each kanji
* Set study order to English, Japanese or random
* Customize study speed
* Include Kanji in Vocab when possible
* Include Romaji in Vocab when possible
* Focus study on Kanji / Hiragana connection in Vocab
* Quick review (scroll list)
If you do not yet know furigana (hiragana and katakana), make sure to learn it. Very important for studying Japanese. However, until you have mastered furigana there is an option to display romanji spelling.
Remember, even if your goal is not to pass the JLPT, you still can learn tons of new Japanese words to use in your everyday life.
Have fun and keep studying.
Pros and cons of JLPT Study FREE, Kanji and Vocabulary Japanese Proficiency Level N5 app for iPhone and iPad
JLPT Study FREE, Kanji and Vocabulary Japanese Proficiency Level N5 app good for
It would be nice to have kanji plus furigana when studying vocabulary instead of hiragana only currently. Also, being able to study kanjis grouped in increasing count of strokes would be nice.
Im preparing for jlpt 2 next year ... Thanks for this wondeful free application ... Its really a big
help...!!! :)
This is a great free app, though the new version seems to forget how much you have studied when you close and reopen. Before the update it remembered how many words or kanji you are studying, but now it doesnt. But still a great app.
Fantastic! In an easy way, now, I can remember a lot of kanji! Thank u
This is a really useful program (and its not easy to find a good one) to learn kanji and Japanese vocabulars. You have to know hiragana and katakana first but its easy to go on learning kanji. Im using the trial version and Im very glad with it; maybe Ill buy the advanced one when Ive finished this.
Its a very good memory/flash card system that covers most of the basics. Its very easy to pickup and start at any time and the free version sets you up with enough beginner kanji.
The only problem is that you cant reset the number of words left to study so if you get a perfect on a quiz a few times you cant do the quiz again for practice. Havent tested if reinstalling the app fixes that but all the same Id like it to be accessable.
Just got the paid for the full version
Some bad moments
Its really a good app, but it could really be better if we can choose the characters to learn
一日= tuitachi when we are saying "first of the month", not ichinichi (which means "one day").
I wanted to try this app but after 3 seconds it shuts down =(
If its not enough that the free version serve as enticement to buy the paid version and you must put ads in the app, would you please label it as ad-supported or include a screenshot that shows its an ad-supported app? Thanks.
The content is good, but the new background is so loud and obnoxious, I cannot go past 10 words without stopping. There isnt even an option to turn off the background! I was thinking of buying this, but not anymore!
Beware: this app has ads. Bad idea if youre really trying to get me to buy the non-free version. Ads are bad enough on a weather app; here Im trying to concentrate and study. Very difficult to do that with ads flashing at the top of the screen. Deleted.
