LanDon's Japanese Verb Conjugation Drill

Landon's Extension to the widely popular Don's Japanese Conjugation Drill

About

Forked from the original Don's Japanese Conjugation Drill, LanDon's Extended version brings a bit more features to help you level up your practice sessions. Verb conjugation can be a complicated thing. Drill yourself on conjugation forms to help you recall patterns for different verb types. This is a work in progress site.

How to use

Just like Dons original site, but more stuff.

  • Set your initial filters that youd like to receive prompts about and start the game
  • the quiz will prompt you with a request to conjugate verbs into a specific change/form
  • type out the conjugation you believe it is (english letters will convert to hiragana)
  • the quiz will tell you if you are right or wrong and explain why you might be wrong

Why extend?

I had been using Don's conjugation practice for a while on my own and found it incredibly useful. However, I also really wished that there was more to the site.

  • More verbs
  • More conjugation options
  • More helper verbs
  • More adjectives

I noticed that the website was a github site, meaning there could be an active repository of code. However it had been over two years since anyone participated on maintaining the code. So I forked it and figured I could continue that work and learn the code base a bit.

Next Up

  • Moreverbs
  • More adjectives
  • Support filtering by JLPT levels
  • Support Filtering by most common verbs
  • Add example sentences.
  • Add sound bytes
  • More redesigning
  • Performance improvements ( because more verbs == slower site currently )

Who is Landon?

You can find a bit of my bio on my page but the short of it is I am a programmer with work history at Disney, Nickelodeon, and worked some time in Japan for a company that made cinematics for Nintendo called Anima. I am a technology obsessive with my roots as an artist. I dabble in a whole lot of projects ranging from book authorship, music, photography, youtube, and games... to coffee, dogs, whisky, bouldering and more. I am still studying Japanese and need a solid set of tools to help myself learn. So here we are.
