About

Rewritten from the ground up. Now better than ever.

With Japanese, learning the Japanese language couldn't be easier. Japanese is truly comprehensive, giving you the tools you need to master the language.

  • search using any combination of Japanese, English, rōmaji or kana
  • you can search with conjugated words and Rikai will guess the plain form, e.g. taberarenai will find results for taberu.
  • use wildcards: * (asterisk) for zero or more characters, _ (underscore) for exactly one character (wildcards work only on Japanese keywords but you can use them with rōmaji)
  • put English keywords in quotation marks to search for the exact phrase, e.g. "take on" will search only for the exact phrase take on and not transcribe it to Japanese
  • draw any kanji or kana with handwriting recognition and Japanese will decipher and display the most likely character.
