Revealing the logic behind kanji

We created our dictionary to focus on understanding — by showing how kanji work as a system, rather than as a bunch of disconnected single characters to be individually mastered.


What our customers are saying

"I bought this. It has helped me recognise and even pronounce characters I have never seen before thanks to my recognition of patterns from the explanations."

"After a lot (really a lot) of failed tests with different books, apps and methods, the only way that the kanji sticks in my mind is your brief, concise and REAL explanation!"

Alessandro Agostinetti (Italy)

"This project is exactly what I was wishing for since I started learning years ago."

Wieland Schultz (Germany)
