Technology
Japanese language is a musical language. Unlike English, it doesn’t have a stress-accent but it has a “musical accent” known as pitch-accent.
Pitch-accent is a decrease or increase in the tone of voice between syllables in a single word. Our technology analyzes pitch patterns of your voice and compares them to the proper pitch patterns of a native speaker visually in the form of a "wave". The wave indicates the highs and lows of the pitch.
It helps you to compare your pronunciation not only by audio but also visually by comparing your “wave” with the “wave” of the native speaker.

“Ready-to-use” language patterns"
Japanese language is full of words and phrases that form language patterns and help people express their thoughts quickly. Our app forms trainings out of these 3 types of words and phrases:
Onomatopoeia words
They are rarely found in other languages, but are very often used by the Japanese native speakers in everyday speech. Onomatopoeia words are the highlight of the Japanese language making it distinctive and unique.
They can quickly and precisely describe feelings and emotions; various sounds, shapes of objects and their textures. Onomatopoeic words might seem difficult to memorize, but don't worry! We have illustrated them to make the learning process fun and interesting!
Idioms and word collocations

With just a few words they help to describe a situation very clearly and succinctly and, at the same time, they contribute to a better understanding of Japanese culture as well as Japanese way of thinking. Knowing and understanding such expressions shows a deep interest in the language and culture, which resonates in the soul of a native speaker.

Loan Words
Japanese language is full of loan words that mostly come from English. These loanwords are called 外来語 - “Gairaigo”
Since Japanese alphabet consists of syllables (morae) rather than letters, it is important to understand that loan words sound quite different from their language of origin.
One of the most common mistakes among foreigners who learn Japanese language is pronouncing loaned words just like they would pronounce them in the language of origin.
Unfortunately, native speakers won’t be able to understand it as they are used to Japanese pronunciation of these words. Thus, it is essential to learn proper Japanese pronunciation of the loan words and pay attention to their pitch-accent.
Japanese Surnames
In Japan, when talking to people who are not friends or relatives, you should address them by their surname followed by a honorific title さん. Just like other words in Japanese language surnames have their pitch-accent. In this section we have collected the most common surnames. Please practice pronouncing Japanese surnames to sound polite when talking to a native speaker.
Tongue Twisters
It is quite common to train and improve speaking skills by repeating tongue twisters when learning foreign language. They help to develop articulatory precision. When you try to quickly pronounce a tongue twister all muscles in your mouth become activated and forced to follow contractions and movements that are common to the language you are learning. It is a fast and effective way to improve articulation and speed of your speech.
Untranslatable Japanese Language
In this section you will find Japanese words and expressions that define important aspects of Japanese culture. They will help you to understand native speakers better through understanding their mentality.
