  • No account to start
  • Web, iOS and Android

How it works

Every session, in four steps

From listening to conversation in about 12 minutes. No penalties: if something doesn’t click, you move on and review it another day.

  1. 1

    Listen

    Real phrases from a conversation, with or without text.

  2. 2

    Imitate

    Record your voice. Koenika compares it with the reference.

  3. 3

    Learn

    It points out the word to improve and tells you how.

  4. 4

    Talk

    Answer Yuki without a model and use what you learned.

Feedback you understand

Know which word to improve and how to say it

No mysterious scores. Koenika highlights the whole word, explains what sounded different and suggests how to practice it.

  • Highlights the whole word, with its reading and meaning
  • Tells you how many beats it has
  • Compares your voice with the reference, slower too

私わたしは日本人にほんじんではありません

I’m not Japanese.

日本人にほんじん· Japanese (person)

The first ん went missing: it sounded like “nihojin”.

Say it in five beats:に·ほ·ん·じ·ん

Melody of はじめましてPitch curve
Low on は, up on じ and it stays there. Choose how to see the guide: curve, steps, arrows or colors.

Melody

In Japanese, pitch matters too

Getting every beat right isn’t enough: where your voice rises and falls matters too. Koenika shows it on every phrase and warns you when the melody changes the meaning.

Learning to read is optional

Start speaking with romaji. Whenever you like, learn hiragana and katakana in 5-minute lessons that don’t use up your daily session.

A streak that grows with you

Its color changes the more days you practice: from spark to flame, and from unstoppable to legendary.

  3. Wednesday: practiced
  4. Thursday: practiced
  5. Friday: practiced

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to read Japanese?

No. You can start by listening and speaking with romaji. Learning kana is optional and runs on the side, without using your daily session.

Do I have to create an account?

Not to start: you can practice without an account from the first minute. If you want one, create it later from your profile.

Which devices does it work on?

In the browser, on iPhone and on Android.

How does it check my pronunciation?

It compares your recording with a reference: every beat of the word and the melody of the phrase. Then it tells you what to change and how to practice it.

Which levels does it cover?

From scratch with kana, then N5, N4 and N3, organized into units with real-life situations.
