ScriptPad: Japanese Writing helps you learn to read, write, type, and speak Japanese from scratch.
Start with Japanese Basics — learn every Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji character with animated stroke-order guides that show you exactly how to write each one. Practice on an interactive drawing canvas and build real muscle memory as you trace each stroke.
Move beyond the basics into structured vocabulary lessons across 6 units and 100+ lessons. Every word comes with native audio so you can hear and practice correct pronunciation as you learn.
Write by Hand: A full drawing canvas for every word — practice writing Japanese characters with your finger or stylus. The character outlines guide your strokes, and stroke-order animation videos show you exactly how each character is written.
Speak & Compare: Record yourself saying each word and compare your pronunciation side-by-side. Instant playback lets you hear exactly where to improve.
Type Mode: Learn how to type Japanese words. Instant feedback shows you what you got right and what to review.
