Kanjis Fáciles

La mejor app para aprender Kanjis. Fácil y divertida

SUPER

Franchement, meilleure application pour l’apprentissage des kanjis pour moi. J’en suis dingue. Je révise des que je peux. Très bien conçue. Je réalise à quel point (même si je le savais déjà, mais bon) que les kanjis constituent un "alphabet" à part entière et leur composition devient tellement logique. Parfait!!

Bonne application

L’apprentissage de la signification et de la calligraphie est vraiment bien pensé. Ce ne sont pas que des dessins, c’est vraiment un alphabet en soit et son apprentissage ne souffre pas d’approximation. C’est ce que j’apprécie.

Best way to learn kanjis

This app is easily the best resource I’ve found for learning kanji. Forget about textbooks, flashcards, and juggling multiple study resources—this app can effectively replace most of them.

It is a paid app, but the price is comparable to what you would spend on a good textbook, and in my experience, it’s absolutely worth it.

It guided me all the way from N5 to N2 in just 1.5 years, and it has become one of the most useful tools in my Japanese-learning journey.

The only real downside is that some of the English translations aren’t quite accurate, and a few words are missing. For example, 動労 is not included.

Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone serious about learning Japanese kanji.
