Learn the Japanese Vocabulary fast and easy! Studying made simple and effective!
LearnKana is a web application designed to help you study handwriting and reading of Japanese alphabet, that at the same time aids you in memorizing and learning new words and phrases.
As a polish student undergoing exchange program in Japan, I needed a tool to quickly learn Japanese alphabets - Hiragana and Katakana. Since I knew just memorizing the characters would not work for me, I was forced to come up with a solution. I decided I want to learn the words by "trial and error" method, guessing what it means and quickly getting feedback - then at the same time I would learn the characters and the meaning behind the words they are used in.
Since I didn't find any other tool, that could work with handwriting while at the same time being simple and intuitive to use, I decided to create it myself. I hope you will find it useful as well!
