Common Questions
Can I try it out first?
Yes — and you don’t need a trial. Kotoba Kards has a free plan that never expires. Every day you can learn 5 new vocabulary words, 1 new grammar lesson and 5 new characters, and reviewing what you have already learned is always unlimited — Test Your Knowledge, fine tuning and the games included. Nothing you learn is ever taken away.
A subscription removes the daily limits so you can learn at your own pace, and removes ads in the mobile app.
Do I need to know Japanese already?
No! Kotoba Kards has content for all learners. It will guide you through learning your first words, constructing your first sentences, and reading your first characters.
Does Kotoba Kards have content for intermediate or advanced learners?
Yes! Whether you completed other introductory content and want to take the next step towards fluency or are studying for the upper levels of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT), Kotoba Kards has vocabulary, grammar, and kanji lessons to take you to the next level!
Do I need a specific device (computer/mobile)?
No! You can learn in the web browser on your computer, tablet, or mobile device. You can also download our mobile app on the Google [Play Store](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kotobakards.kotobakards&hl=en_US) and Apple [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/kotoba-kards/id6748415862).
