to a kimono-type closure, not a contraction of “white shirt.”

Deepa,
Thank you very much. Unfortunately there is no official list of vocabulary required for the JLPT. As
a result lists are created reviewing historical tests and different teachers have slightly different
lists. I will check if I find these words in some historical tests and add them to the list in case I had
overseen them before. Thank you very much for your attention on this.

Hello! I am Usagi. The Kanji 背 is usually pronounced せ not せい, please note せい is an alternate
reading for せ but it is not usually pronounced this way in sentences like “メアリーは背(せ)が高(たか
い)” and “私(わたし)は背(せ)が高(たかい)”. N5 learners are more likely to need to know せ from what
I have seen. Thank you for an excellent website!

Hi, Sophie and Nicolas. Thanks for an excellent tool. Just noted a few mistakes and typos.

1. The word お菓子 okashi does not have a ひらがな version.

2. I don’t think the kanji for 〜だい ~dai, meaning “counter for machines”, is 〜代, but 〜台. 代 is
rather used to refer to age or generation.

3. The roomaji transliteration for 真直ぐに まっすぐに should be “massugu ni”, rather than “massugi
ni”.

4. The verb “to forget”, which is listed as 忘る わする wasuru, should be 忘れる わすれる
wasureru (it’s a verb from Group 2).

Again, thank you for the great tool.

Thanks for sharing this good idea. We keep adding more pages and function step by step but
adding audio will take us quite some time as we first want to finish all the vocabulary & kanji lists.
But we added this to the development list.

This question might have already been asked and answered already, but I was just wondering, since
there is only 103 total kanji you’ve grouped for the N5, can I assume that much of the vocabulary on
this list will be in the “furigama” format, and not in kanji? At first glance, there are quite a few kanji
listed on this list that is not part of the 103 set.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Yes, in N5 test most of vocabulary is in Hiragana or Kanji with Hiragana translation written above.

Hi. I’ve noticed a minor spelling mistake that you’ve made; Instead of translating suu (吸う ) as “to
breathe”, you’ve put “to breath”. Apart from that, thanks for creating this list, it’s very helpful.
