OK, another question! I thought that “ ワイシャツ (waishatsu)” referred to a “Y”front shirt, as opposed
to a kimonotype closure, not a contraction of “white shirt.”

I found a few mistakes.
1) おきる (to place) should be おく.
2) 抜く (to take off shoes etc.) should be 脱ぐ.
3) There is no English translation for 見せる (“miseru” is listed twice).

Hi Nicolas ,
Thanks for replying. I love your site and it has been very very helpful to me.
I got exactly this same vocab list (without meanings) from my sensei as a JLPT Level 5 portion. The
words below were also included in that list.
ゆうがた (evening)
ゆうびんきょく
(post office)
ゆうべ
(evening; yesterday evening)
ゆうめい (な ) (famous)
ゆき (snow)
ゆっくり と

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
せ but it is not usually pronounced this way in sentences like “メアリーは背(せ)が高(たか
reading for
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

Hello,
Thanks for your questions, which other might have had too. For the JLPT N5 you need to know
all 800 vocabulary, but you do not need to know to read them all as kanji. The list includes all
kanji writing for those who are interested, but you only need to know the kanji writing of the
vocabulary in pink to pass the test.

The world oozei often comes out in the JLPT N5 but the kanji is quite complicated and thus not

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”.
Again, thank you for the great tool.

On the very top, ああ’s romanji should be aa not ah… And since it doesn’t have a kanji, why not just
put N/A (not applicable)? Oh well, do whatever you want. :3

“ah” is just an English translation of “aa” (cuz you should at least know how to pronounce Kana
already)
Putting N/A in a long list like this would cause the confusion (esp for my eyes), so I think it’s fine
to leave it blank!

I don’t think so. I all romaji’s column, we can see the kana’s transcription, and then the
translation, btw, why add a translation column if romaji is translation ^^ it’s not logical so..
Romaji of ああ is aa for me ^^

Hi Nicholas, in the romaji section for cup, koppu is written in katakana and it is transliterated into
romaji as kappu. Please do the correction.. ^^

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.
