## What is Kotoba Dōjō?

Learn a language. Shape your story. Build your dojo.

Kotoba Dōjō brings vocabulary, grammar, listening comprehension, reading and writing into one learning journey. Practice adapts as you learn, your choices influence the story, and your dojo grows with your progress.

REMEMBER WORDS AND PUT THEM TO USE
Build your vocabulary with flashcards, example sentences and varied exercises. Spaced repetition brings words back for review, while adaptive sessions help you work on what needs more practice.

MAKE GRAMMAR CLICK
Explore grammar explanations and put the rules into practice. Work through focused exercises and return for adaptive review as you build confidence with sentences.

TRAIN YOUR EAR
Practice listening comprehension with audio scenarios and questions that help you check what you understood. Connect the words you recognize on the page with the language you hear.

FIND YOUR WORDS IN WRITING
Write in the language you are learning and get feedback on your work. Use writing practice to bring vocabulary and grammar together and see what to improve next.

A STORY YOU HELP SHAPE
Follow Takeshi's Tale alongside your training. Make choices that influence the story and discover what comes next as you progress.

A DOJO THAT GROWS WITH YOU
Build and personalize your dojo, equip your character and make your progress visible. Each return is a chance to develop your skills and the place you call your own.

KEEP LEARNING THROUGH WHAT YOU ENJOY
Read books and graded stories, tap unfamiliar words and save them for practice. Bring your own study material and make it part of your learning routine.

LEARN YOUR NEXT LANGUAGE
Study Spanish, Japanese, English, French, German, Italian, Polish or Russian.

Choose your language and start your first practice session. Your dojo is waiting.

Free access is available. Some features require Kotoba Dōjō Pro.
