If you need resources feel free to pm me since I've been doing this for several years now or have a look at r/LearnJapanese and their wiki page, they have an awesome Starter Guide to help you understand the complexities of the language and the road you're about to take, and they will be one of the best places you can go to for Japanese.Ready to learn Japanese? Meet your personal sensei-in-a-box. Most apps by themselves will NOT teach you enough, you need several resources if you plan on seriously tackling the language.
I don't want to fully discredit any of the apps, they have their purpose of course, but for Japanese in particular you REALLY need to be aware of how complex the language is and what exactly you will need out of it before you just choose an app someone recommended. "All purpose" apps will rarely teach you kanji beyond the first JLPT level (100 kanji out of ~2000) and they usually rely on translations to teach you meaning rather than teach you meaning by association or mnemonics which is much less useful for remembering stuff since you're constantly translating sentences in your head, and their grammar is also often overly simplified and not that useful outside of the most basic of chats (Japanese is super context heavy, so one single grammar tool can have multiple meanings depending on context), and I have yet to find an app that goes into keigo (honorific speech) which is a must if you are to speak to someone at your job in Japanese (you change your speech based on social hierarchy in Japanese) so you don't end up being unintentionally rude to your superior (although to be fair foreigners usually get a discount).

Though I am not against language learning apps per se, as a learner and translator of Japanese I want to add a big caveat to any "all purpose" language learning apps being recommended: Most of these will only give you bare bones knowledge on the language, useful mostly for the most basic of chats and interactions so you can get by.īefore you venture into Japanese I want you to ask yourself these sorts of questions: Are you staying in Japan long term or just temporarily? Do you need to know Japanese for your job or just to get by casually? Do need to know how to write, read, or speak (or all 3)? These things will absolutely influence the route you should take to learning Japanese.įor example if you need to read and write I would recommend first grabbing some hiragana/katakana tables and getting yourself familiar with them, then grab an app like Japanese Kanji Study (I prefer books personally but as far as apps go this is by far the best android one) to learn Kanji, and finally find some grammar resources, preferably a book which lets you go more in depth into the grammar, but something like Obenkyo will let you get started somewhere as well (it uses the Tae Kim grammar guide for its grammar section which albeit not perfect is definitely useful for beginners).
