Is everything on Jepang.org free?
Yes, everything is free. We believe good learning resources should be accessible to everyone. Community donations help keep the servers running.
What should beginners learn first?
Start with Hiragana and Katakana before relying on romaji. After you know the scripts, continue with Phase 1 tutorials on basic grammar while building N5 vocabulary.
Is this material enough to pass JLPT N3?
The grammar, kanji, and vocabulary materials from N5 to N3 give you a solid foundation. JLPT also tests Choukai (listening). Add outside listening practice; Jepang.org currently focuses on text-based learning.
