Is it possible the above list beside kanji, furigana, romanji, also use ますform(i.g.かけます), てform(i.g.かけて), 字書form(i.g.かける), ないform(i.g.かけない), たform(i.gかけた). I mean insert in thelist, so we know when we use joshou form, masu form, nai form and ta form. Thank you

sophiecoureau says:June 19, 2012 at 09:08

Hello,

Thank you for your comment, rather than putting it in the same list we prefer putting links to apage where the different forms are explained but this is again a lot of work and will take sometime.Thank you for your comprehension,

Best Regards.

Is this a cumulative list? As in, does it include N5 vocabulary or solely N4 vocabulary? Thank you!

Nicolas says:September 9, 2012 at 12:01

Thanks for the comment. These are only the additions required for JLPT N4, so you also need tohave a look at the JLPT N5 list to cover all words.I thought about creating a consolidated list, but it takes huge effort. So I preferred to first work onadding more lists for higher levels and to make a consolidated list some day. Thanks for yourunderstanding.

wesleymlincoln says:September 9, 2012 at 19:49

Oh I see, thanks! I’m really grateful for all your hard work and I’m sure I’m not the only one! Iintended to combine the N4 and N5 lists but wanted to make sure first that this list didn’talready have the N5 words in it. 本当にありがとうございました!　^^

I’ve just finished the N5 list and there are a lot words in the N4 list that are in the N5 as well…Therefore, not all the words here are new.

D says:April 6, 2014 at 06:48

This seems incorrect….as I believe this list is N5+N4

Nicolas says:May 6, 2014 at 10:54

Thanks for pointing it out. It has been corrected now.

But, I think there is a mistake with 故障. It means a break down or failure doesn’t it?

This site is fantastic, I use it every day! I just recently ran into an issue though: ご存知 is just“knowing,” I believe. I figure you probably meant that you’d use the term with an acquaintance, but itreads like “acquaintance” is another definition of the word.

Reply

Nicolas says:March 9, 2013 at 00:16

Thanks for your comment. The work ご存知 actually has two meanings and one of it isacquaintance.

Thanks for the comment. Do you have a concrete suggestion on to make it easier to use?

Reply

David V. Appleyard says:November 10, 2013 at 18:28

Insert bookmarks in each hiragana section title. Then create a couple of lines of boldenednarrow-spaced links (あいうえおかきくけこ, etc.) which you can then paste in atregular intervals throughout the page. Include a final link to ‘top’ for good measure.Alternatively, you could simplify matters by creating links to あーお　かーこ　さーそ,etc.Even this latter option would make quite a difference, I think.

Tharun says:November 10, 2013 at 23:45

At the top of the page you used to tell “Those kanji you need to know for the JLPT N4 are markedwith color” like that may I know the thing, i mean to say you are given list (marked with color words) isfull of N4 level kanji’s. as of know this is not completed with knowing things. pleas update correctly.
