Japanese Learning: Speak Words
Vocabulary, listening, offline
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New: Memory Check. A few days after you learn words, the app asks them back — no hints, no kana. See what stuck, and speak from day one, word by word.
Japanese learning that speaks — learn words from your very first one to a real conversation. You see the words and sentences, you hear them, and you say them out loud. Every Japanese word and sentence carries its kana reading right underneath, so kanji never blocks you, and when you speak, the score shows each word with its reading.
Vocabulary, listening and offline study run as one daily flow. Words, sentences, pronunciation and speaking belong to the same routine, and audio you've already played stays on your device, so a lost signal doesn't end the session. We teach first and ask afterward: a word you've never seen never starts with a test.
HOW YOU LEARN
Learn first, check afterward. New words and new sentences only turn into questions once you've had time to take them in.
One word, tracked from several angles: recognizing the meaning, recalling it yourself, understanding it by ear and saying it out loud are each recorded separately.
Spaced repetition. A word comes back just as you're about to forget it, and each angle returns on its own schedule, so you never grind through what you already know.
Memory check. A few days after you learn words, the app asks them back — no hints, no kana. You see which ones stayed and which slipped, and it asks again tomorrow.
Practice follows the way you got it wrong. What comes next depends on where you got stuck.
