The official JLPT has not published vocabulary or grammar lists since 2010. Levels are estimates.
Changes we made
- Words on more than one list are assigned to the easier level.
- Meanings marked vulgar, derogatory or sensitive, and archaic or rare meanings, are not used.
- Up to three senses are shown. Words are ordered by JMdict frequency markers.
- Furigana alignment is computed from the written form and reading.
Original content
All grammar explanations, example sentences, translations and practice test questions are written by StackWorks. No official JLPT questions are used.
