Join the CommunityWhy Learning Japanese with Others Works
Learning a language takes time. Having a community around you is one of the best ways to stay with it long enough to succeed.
Stay motivated
Seeing other students study every day and earn achievements makes it easier to show up for your own practice. Progress is contagious.
Learn from others
Other students have already organized vocabulary lists by topic, JLPT level, or theme. Find and subscribe to lists that others have made. No need to start from scratch.
Healthy competition
Our daily, weekly, and all-time leaderboards show you where you stand. A little friendly competition helps you practice every day.
Everything That Comes With Your Community
Shared Study Lists
Build your own vocabulary lists and share them with everyone. Subscribe to lists made by other students and add their words to your drills. Looking for JLPT N5 vocabulary, anime words, or business Japanese? There is a community list for it.
Build your own. Discover others. Learn together.
Community Groups. Find your people.
We launched 12 discussion groups organized by topic and JLPT level. Ask grammar questions. Share what you are watching. Compare JLPT study strategies. Get help from learners who have been where you are.
Every group has its own threads and replies. You can start a conversation, jump into an existing one, or just read along until you find your footing.
Community Groups are available to all Nihongo Master subscribers.
