About this app

Progressive Nihongo — a Japanese learning app built for Chinese speakers

Organised by JLPT level, not by textbook chapter
Content is split by proficiency level only (N5–N1), so you work your way up instead of grinding through a whole textbook from page one. N5 Starter is live now with 774 words and 237 grammar points.

Word cards
- Kanji, reading, Chinese meaning and part of speech
- Every word comes with 3 example sentences, with the reading written above the kanji
- Tap for pronunciation — the examples read aloud too
Grammar cards
- How each grammar point is used, with its connection pattern
- A Chinese explanation and example sentences
- Points you have already studied are marked

A daily study plan
- Two modes: a fixed number of new words a day, or set a target date and let the app work out how much you need each day
- Adjust your daily new-word count yourself
- Each day's list is ready when you are

Reviews are scheduled for you
Flip the card to see the answer, then tap "Got it" or "Not yet". The app uses your answer to decide when to show that word again, and words you have made stable stop coming back so often.

See your progress
- Progress for every level
- Your streak in days
- How many words you have seen and made stable, and how many grammar points you have studied

What’s new

Fixed the kana pronunciation in the Reference tab. Tapping a kana now plays one single, continuous held vowel —
▎ for example, "kaa" — instead of four long vowels chained together, which sounded like trembling. The voice and
▎ pitch are exactly the same as in normal reading; the sound is simply held slightly longer, so beginners can
▎ hear each kana clearly.
