Japanese Vocabulary

Useful words, phrases and kanji, sorted by situation.

Words you will actually use

Restaurants, transport, work, meeting people: our vocabulary articles group phrases by situation, with kanji, reading and meaning.

Kanji and reading side by side

For each word we give the Japanese script and the romanised reading, so you can learn to say it before you can read it.

Remembering for good

Your teacher brings new vocabulary back from one lesson to the next until it sticks.
