What's in it:

Seven rules: を for the object (and the place you leave), に for a point in time or space or a person, で for where an action happens and what it's done with, に vs で, が for subjects and likes, と, and から/まで/までに.

Ten questions per level, getting harder. Tap a particle and you see at once whether it fits, why, and what the tempting wrong answer gets wrong (ぎんこうに vs ぎんこうで, ねこを vs ねこが, the passive's に, あく vs あける). Every question has exactly one natural answer; wherever two particles could both work, I swapped the sentence out.

今回の作品：浜松図屏風

今回ご紹介するのは、室町時代・15世紀に描かれた「浜松図屏風」です。

伝土佐光重筆とされるこの作品は、六曲一双の大きな画面いっぱいに、広い浜辺と海、そして力強い松が描かれています。 大きくうねる波や、海岸線に沿って伸びる松、遠くに見える漁船などから、雄大な海辺の風景が感じられます。

また、画面には雲母が使われ、金銀の切箔や砂子によって、室町時代のやまと絵らしい静かな輝きが表現されています。

豪壮な海の景色と、静かな光の美しさが一緒に感じられる作品です。

今回も、名画を見ながら日本語を学びます。

絵の中の日本語を一緒に読んで、 言葉の意味や表現を少しずつ覚えていきましょう。

今回のことば

・金色（きんいろ）

・浜辺（はまべ）

・松（まつ）

・描く（えがく）

這一次一起學習：

不為了考試，

只是每天讀一點、看一點，

讓日文慢慢成為生活的一部分。

It’s still early, so tell me what’s fun, what’s confusing, and what’s broken. Good luck to everyone taking the JLPT in December!

Hi everyone!

I'm looking for a Japanese tutor or a small online group class to prepare for the JLPT N5 exam in July 2027.

I'm a complete beginner, so I need someone who can teach me from the basics and guide me through the complete N5 syllabus.

What I'm looking for:

• Live online or in-person (In Karachi, Pakistan) classes with a tutor.
• A structured study plan covering hiragana, katakana, vocabulary, kanji, grammar, reading, and listening.
• Practice tests and JLPT-style mock exams.
• A teacher who can explain lessons in English or Urdu.

I'm serious about preparing for the July 2027 exam and want to follow a proper schedule (Anytime between 12:00 PM - 5:30 PM PST).

If you're a Japanese tutor or know a good tutor who offers beginner group classes, please comment or send me a Reddit DM.

Thank you!

The ★ question gives you four blanks, four pieces, and asks which piece lands on the star. Most people try to guess the ★ directly. Don't — build the whole sentence first, then read off the star.

The habits that solve almost every one:

1. **Start from the end.** The words after the last blank are fixed. A verb wants its object (〜を), です wants a noun or adjective, ください wants a て-form.

2. **Describers sit right before what they describe.** A plain-form verb piece is usually followed directly by a noun piece.

3. **Particles point forward.** A piece ending in は/が/を/に/で needs something after it.

4. **Keep fixed patterns together.** 〜てから, 〜ために, 〜ようになる always arrive in the same order — lock them first.

5. **Reasons and conditions come first.** A clause ending in ので/から/ば/たら goes before the main clause.

Worked example (N4):

レポートは ＿ ＿ ★ ＿ ください。

Pieces: 先生に · 金曜日 · 出して · までに

- ください needs a て-form right before it → 出して is last.

- 金曜日 + までに is one unit (the deadline) → it goes first.

- 先生に (to whom) sits before the verb.

金曜日 / までに / **先生に** / 出して — the ★ is 先生に.

I made a free mini course with this method and ten practice questions per level (N5–N1), getting harder as you go. You tap the pieces into place and it shows the reasoning for each one:

Hey everyone! 😊

I wanted to share a project I’ve been working on for quite a while: NIHONGO DX7!
I’m a solo developer creating a pixel-art RPG where you learn Japanese by exploring Tokyo, talking to characters, completing quests, and practicing vocabulary through everyday situations.

The idea is to make learning Japanese feel like an adventure rather than just another study session.
But there’s something I’m particularly passionate about: recreating Tokyo’s real neighborhoods as faithfully as possible!
I’ve spent a lot of time reproducing recognizable streets, buildings, shops, and landmarks in places like Shinjuku, Shin-Okubo, Asakusa, and Ueno.
I love the idea that someone could play the game and later visit Tokyo and recognize places they’ve already explored! 🇯🇵

The free prologue is already available on the App Store, Google Play, and directly in your PC browser, with no installation required.
The game is available in both English and French.
If you’d like to check it out:

I’d genuinely love to hear what fellow Japanese learners think about this approach! 😊

🇮🇳🇯🇵 Looking for Indian friends to learn Japanese together!

I'm from India and currently learning Japanese from the beginning. I'm practising Hiragana and preparing to work towards JLPT N5.

I'm looking for Hindi-speaking Indian beginners who want to:

- Study together for 1–2 hours daily

- Practise reading and writing Hiragana

- Learn vocabulary and grammar

- Take quizzes and test each other

- Prepare for JLPT N5 and eventually N3

We'll create a small online study group and help each other stay consistent.

Comment or message me if you're interested!

Read every handwritten sign in a tiny ramen shop? Understand the conversation at the next table? Finally catch the joke that didn’t survive the subtitles?

For me, that’s the appeal of learning Japanese: getting a little closer to the everyday things you’d otherwise miss.

I’m the developer of Kotoba Bloom, a Japanese-learning app with AI practice. That connection between language and curiosity about Japan is what I want to build around.

What’s one thing in Japan you’d love to understand without reaching for a translation?

If that sounds like your reason for learning too, here’s Kotoba Bloom:

Hi everyone,

I have been enjoying reading the following book. Been reading on customs and culture. I like how certain words are often reused. Makes learning grammar and vocab easy, while I also learn about Japan.

Book title is 英語で日本紹介ハンドブック = An Introductory Handbook to Japan and Its People

... i.e. specifying note types and filling in field templates like "{expression}" and "{glossary}", in contrast to Dokuen's previous fixed-format export.

Bug reports welcome! (Or pull requests, of course.)

A few fields aren't supported yet (the full list is in the readme on GitHub), most notably {screenshot} and {clipboard-image}, but rest assured those are coming very soon. Actually the code for those is almost done, it's just waiting on a new host API rollout that adds support for passing the OCR image back to the plugin.

Enjoy!

,,【#1】EIKO!GO!!「マインクラフト」名場面集（EIKO!GO!!「Minecraft」Spectacular Scenes ）"

I think it's good for upper beginner-early intermediate. It's a series, the premise being building his beautiful Eiko world with a castle. At least trying to. He even bought a minecraft book and comments sometimes help him out. I find that the pacing is nice over all, relatively easy to follow.
