WordBlitz: Japanese & Chinese

WordBlitz is Japanese and Chinese practice for English speakers: a few minutes a day, putting words back into real sentences against a gentle clock — with natural voices, readings over every kanji and pinyin under every Chinese word.

· Timed fill-in-the-blank: one to three blanks a sentence; faster answers score more, and a wrong try just lets you try again · Type on your English keyboard: romaji becomes kana as you type (taberu → たべる), and a Chinese blank takes its pinyin without tones (xianzai → 现在) · Furigana over the kanji at Easy, romaji under every word, and the English meaning a tap away · 14 topics, from daily life and travel to business, food and medicine, at three levels — plus JLPT practice for Japanese (N5–N1) · Natural Japanese and Mandarin voices read every sentence, male and female · Shadowing and a pitch mirror: speak along with the model, then compare your intonation curve with it · Write kana and kanji with your finger; recognition runs on the phone · Starter books explained in English: Japanese (hiragana, katakana, grammar, vocabulary) and Chinese (pinyin, tones, grammar, vocabulary), with drills · Classic Japanese and Chinese short stories read sentence by sentence, with an English line under each · A mistake notebook and spaced review, daily goals, streaks, badges, a weekly report and seven colour themes

New accounts get 10 free practice sentences in Japanese and 10 in Chinese, and 60 more after registering an email. More sentences, the full starter book and the stories are in-app purchases.

WordBlitz also has a Chinese interface (布狸词) for Chinese speakers learning English and Japanese, and a Japanese one for Japanese speakers learning English and Chinese — switch any time in Me → Native language.
