Master Japanese Characters with Nihongo: Read Japanese

Nihongo by Alysha Kwok offers a comprehensive and engaging way to learn Japanese characters, making the language accessible to beginners and enthusiasts alike.
This flashcard-based app offers a comprehensive approach to mastering the Japanese writing systems. It is designed to facilitate learning through interactive study methods, enabling users to engage with the characters and track their progress effectively.
- Learn the Writing Systems: Users can select from different writing systems, including Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji, studying the characters through either a grid layout or swipeable cards.
- Quiz Yourself: The app features an intuitive flashcard quiz system, allowing users to test their knowledge on a selected subset of characters or the entire list. After completing a quiz, users can focus on retesting the characters they struggled with.
- Self-Check Mechanism: Characters are shuffled and revealed with a simple tap for instant feedback, and results can be logged by swiping — left for incorrect responses and right for correct ones. An alternative button interface is available for those who prefer not to swipe.
- Practice Mode: For those who wish to practice without saving results, a dedicated practice mode allows for continuous testing without tracking accuracy.
- Analytics Tracking: Detailed analytics enable users to view their progress over time, including accuracy metrics that highlight areas needing improvement. An accuracy indicator allows for color-coding cards that fall below a user-defined threshold.
The app’s features also allow flexibility in learning preferences:
- Select study methods: grid-view or swipeable cards with adjustable font sizes.
- Option to retest incorrect answers without affecting overall accuracy scores, ensuring ongoing learning opportunities.
- Dark mode is available for enhanced visual comfort during study sessions.
The app grants access to Hiragana free of charge, while further content including Katakana and Kyoiku Kanji is available through an upgrade. This emphasis on structured learning, self-assessment, and tracking makes it a useful resource for anyone looking to enhance their understanding of Japanese characters.
