Welcome to Arutairu, an open-source Android app designed to help users learn Japanese vocabulary in a fun and efficient way. This app is perfect for anyone interested in improving their Japanese language skills, whether for travel, watching anime, or simply for personal growth.
Passionate about learning languages, and unsatisfied with traditional language learning apps, I developed Arutairu to meet my own needs. As my requirements were met and my time to improve the app diminished, I decided to make Arutairu open-source. This gives the app a fresh new start and the chance to evolve with contributions from the community.
- Vocabulary Lists & JLPT Preparation: Learn Japanese through extensive vocabulary lists and prepare for the JLPT with focused word sets.
- Pronunciation & Romaji: Use the Text To Speech service for pronunciation help and read words in Romaji.
- Hiragana, Katakana, Kanji: Start with Hiragana, move to Katakana, and finally Kanji as per your comfort level. Vocabulary lists are available in kana and kanji.
- Offline Access: Learn anywhere, anytime, without needing an internet connection.
