About this app

Penglo helps you feel the logic behind Japanese, not just memorize words.

Start building real Japanese from your very first lesson — grammar, kanji, and vocab together, in the order that actually makes sense.

oh, and you'll have a penglo. he needs you.

HOW IT WORKS:

• Progressive item introduction — each new item built on the last (e.g. 一 → 日 → 一日 → 中 → 一日中)
• Sentence-based quizzes — every item practiced in context, never standalone
• Smart hints — explains why your answer is close, instead of just marking it wrong
• Spaced repetition — reviews scheduled automatically so you don't forget anything

WHAT'S INCLUDED:

• JLPT-ordered curriculum
• Example sentences with audio & karaoke highlighting — see exactly what's being said as you hear it
• Tap any word for instant context-aware explanations — every sentence fully annotated for how each word is actually being used
• Progress tracking & stats
• Built-in dictionary with bookmarks & search history
• Pomodoro Timer
