Description

A cute, ad-free, and enjoyable learning experience is waiting for you in the Renshuu community! The free version is unlimited: there’s no timer before you are forced to pay!

- A path for every learning style and every goal -
Whether you are getting started with the alphabets or have been studying for years, jump in exactly where you belong! Don’t waste time going through what you already know.

Renshuu maintains learning paths for most textbooks, the JLPT, Kanji Kentei, and for those who just want to learn. You can also carve out your own path! Our community has over 10,000 user-made lessons for even more focused learning.

- Cute, relaxing, and fun -
Our mascot Kao-chan is here to let you enjoy learning Japanese, whether it’s through collectible coins every time you quiz, a character that evolves as you learn, manga pages that you unlock, or hundreds of hand-made illustrations.

Additionally, we have both single and multiplayer games to help you keep your learning and reviewing fresh!

- Personal service -
We are just a two-person company - and we don’t use chat bots. That means that every question you have gets an answer directly from us.

- Rich, in-depth materials -
> Vocabulary: over 15,000 native-recorded audio files, 17,000 hand-picked images, and 160,000 example sentences make understanding vocabulary a breeze. Our growing library of accent/pitch data can even help you with accent reduction.
> Kanji: 12,000+ kanji, with no limits on what you can study! Over 2,000 colorful mnemonics help you to understand and retain the meanings.
> Grammar: Over 800 different expressions, each complete with native-written model sentences, construction diagrams, audio, and over 7,500 hand-made quiz questions.
> Sentences: Thousands of sentences complete with audio, divided by theme and difficulty levels.

- A superior quiz system designed around Japanese -
Our SRS-for-Japanese system doesn’t treat Japanese materials like flashcards to be memorized, and breaks every item down into individual components so you can understand, and not just memorize. Mastery schedules keep you studying only what you need to, pushing weaker materials to the front for you to focus on.

Dozens of different question styles keep things fresh, while a flexible input system (multiple choice, typing, or writing) lets you answer the way that you want to.

- Customizable down to the last character -
Renshuu doesn’t believe that there is a single way of studying that everyone should adhere to. Our expansive settings and customizations let you adjust the learning environment to what works best for you.

Unerwartet gut!

Die App ist kostenlos und dennoch sehr durchdacht. Die Oberfläche ist recht simpel, aber der Gamification Charakter und die Empfehlungen auf der Startseite machen das lernen sehr locker und spaßig. Man wird angeleitet erst Hiragana und Katakana zu lernen (und lernt paralel schon Wörter, weil diese mit Beispielen und Bildern hinterlegt sind). Man schaltet mit dem Lernfortschritt Manga Seiten frei um sein gelerntes anzuwenden. Einfach super durchdacht sehr gut zum lernen.

Thanks so much for the review, and sorry for the English reply! I'm so happy that you're having fun while you learn with renshuu. We do have more German added to the translations every week (thanks to our wonderful learning community.)

Should you need anything in the future, do let me know! I'm always here at michael@renshuu.org, or the ? button at the top of the app.

Fun Japanese

Die App und der Gratisteil sind super umfangreich, sogar Kanjistrichführung ist dabei. Durch die Spiele und die süße Kao-Chan macht es direkt noch mehr Spaß.
Aufgrund der Pitchakzente werde ich mich für die Pro Variante entscheiden solange sie noch im Angebot ist :)

Thank you so much for the kind words! (and sorry for the English response.) I'm glad you're enjoying everything that renshuu has, and it indeed sounds like you're trying out a bit of everything!

Do let me know if you need anything at all while learning with us. I'm always here at michael@renshuu.org, or the ? button at the top of the app.

Perfekt ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wenn ich könnte, würde ich sechs Sterne vergeben.

Ich habe erst vor kurzem die Webseite entdeckt und die App funktioniert eigentlich genauso.
Es ist unglaublich, was einem an kostenlosem (!!!) Content geboten wird. Man kann nicht nur Vokabeln, Kanji und Grammatik üben, sondern hat auch weitere Funktionen wie unter anderem Spiele, Kreuzworträtsel und Wörterbücher.

Außerdem gibt es vorgefertigte Lernsets für verschiedene Lehrbücher wie zum Beispiel GENKI.

Die perfekte Begleitung fürs Japanisch-Lernen.

Ich überlege tatsächlich, zur Pro Version zu wechseln. Nicht, weil mir etwas bestimmtes fehlen würde, sondern auch um die Entwickler zu unterstützen.

Vielen Dank für die tolle App (und Webseite) 😊
