Play Japanese Language Learning Games – Master Hiragana, Katakana & Kanji

Two kanji face off. One holds the ring with its real usage rank showing — is the challenger more common or less common? Guess right and it takes over. Learn which kanji actually matter before you memorise a single one: the top 500 cover 80% of everything you'll ever read.

The form you were asked for, produced by you — not picked from a list. Every verb and adjective form from ます to causative-passive, with godan, ichidan, する and 来る handled correctly because the conjugation class comes from dictionary data rather than a guess at the ending. Type in romaji — no Japanese keyboard needed — and the rule appears after every single answer.

One word is missing from a real sentence. Put it back. Every sentence is checked so that exactly one particle fits — に and へ are never offered against each other, and は is only tested against が where が is genuinely obligatory. Your dashboard then names the exact pair you keep mixing up, which beats being told to "practise particles".

The pieces of a real Japanese sentence, in the wrong order. Put them back. The tiles are 文節 chunks — 私は, 本を, 読みます — the units word order actually moves, not individual characters. Tap to place, tap to take back, and the translation is one tap away when you are stuck.

One pencil is いっぽん. Three are さんぼん. Six are ろっぽん. Nobody remembers this from a table, so drill it instead — 本, 枚, 匹, 個, 人, 杯, 階 and fifteen more, with a whole mode devoted to the five numbers where the sound actually changes.

Not an animation you watch — strokes you place yourself. Every stroke of the character is shown greyed out, and you tap them in the order they are written. Then trace each one with your finger, checked for direction as well as shape. Plus a stroke-counting mode, the skill that makes a paper dictionary usable.

Can you read Japan? Every one of Japan's 1,651 cities, towns and villages — real kanji, real readings, real coordinates. Read place names that even native speakers struggle with (難読地名), then pin them on a map of Japan drawn entirely from the data itself.
