Update! - March 8, 2019

All N2 Lesson 10 grammar points now have 12 sentences and 12 review questions! This means that all N2 grammar points now have enough study questions for each SRS interval, meaning every sentence that you come across will be different from the last.

Each review session will test your knowledge of the grammar point in new and unique contexts every time, so you no longer simply memorize sentences. Since Bunpro’s sentences are written in a way that build upon previously studied grammar, you also get more and more exposure to the grammar points that you have learned as you progress through each subsequent level on Bunpro.


Ooooh Shiny! Grammar tiles now display when you have passed all 12 SRS intervals and “burned” a grammar point.


Now that N2 grammar points have 12 sentences and 12 review questions, we are putting all of our effort into polishing all of the lower levels’ content, which means adding missing grammar points, fixing audio and ironing out any remaining kinks.

Thank you for all of your kind words, support, feedback, and suggestions. Please let us know if there is anything that we can do to improve your experience! Cheers!

Cram!

With the December JLPT exactly one week away, it is the perfect time to really focus on the individual grammar points that are giving you the most trouble.

For this reason, we have added a few features to Cram to enhance your grammar studies.

  • You can now select multiple JLPT levels to cram at once.

  • In addition to selecting multiple JLPT levels, you can now select individual grammar points from within those categories.

What's Cram, again?
  • Cram allows you to review random example sentences from a particular JLPT level.

  • Cram draws from every available study question in our database to cover a variety of situations and nuances.

  • You can cram for as long as you like without affecting your normal review SRS.

Happy cramming and good luck on the JLPT!


Bookmarks

You can now bookmark individual grammar points! Just click on the bookmark icon in the upper right-hand corner of a grammar point page.

  • Grammar points you have bookmarked will be marked with a bookmark icon.

Copy Japanese

You now have the ability to copy the Japanese example sentences to the clipboard without furigana.


Wanakana Update + Bug Fixes

  • Various minor bug fixes.

Troubled Grammar

  • You can now view your troubled grammar points on the Stats page.

April 18, 2020 - N1 Update!

The first half of N1 (through ともなると) now has 6 + sentences for each grammar point. These new sentences diver deeper into each grammar point and cover a wide array of contexts.

In addition to the new sentences, explanations, context information, and nuance notes have all been revised and expanded upon.

Once each grammar point in N1, Lesson 1 has six or more sentences we will begin adding Lesson 2 grammar points.

May 1, 2020 - N1 Update!

Over 70 new sentences added to N1, Lesson 1! Now each grammar point has 6 + example sentences and review questions that dive deeper into each grammar point and cover a wide array of contexts.

We have also updated the explanations for each grammar point, expanded upon existing structures, and added more answers that guide you to the correct answer rather than mark you incorrectly.

Now that N1, Lesson 1 has 6 + sentences we will begin adding Lesson 2 grammar points. Similar to Lesson 1, Lesson 2’s grammar points will be organized by frequency and build upon the grammar that you have learned in previous lessons.

July 19, 2020 Updates!

Faster Search
The All page under Grammar now loads just N5, followed by the rest of the NX levels. This should greatly improve loading speeds allowing you to find exactly what you are looking for more quickly.

Improved Search
We have added “metadata” to grammar points. This allows us to assign keywords (tags) and add obscure meanings to grammar points without cluttering up the grammar point’s main page. What this essentially means is that as we add more metadata to grammar points, you will be more likely to find what you are looking for when searching for, even if the search term you used does not appear on the grammar point’s main page.

Updated Summary Page
We have added headers to separate correctly and incorrectly answered items on the Summary page. This change was made to help users with color vision deficiency to differentiate right and wrong answers.

Various Bug fixes

These updates include nuance hints, grammar notes, Community Discussion links, and more.

Hints that appear in the answer blank now move to above the Japanese sentence when you start typing instead of disappearing.
