Learn Japanese Online — From Kana to Kanji
Japanese scripts intimidate most beginners. Talktiko introduces hiragana and katakana through interactive exercises, then gradually layers on kanji using context — not rote memorization.
Everything you need to learn Japanese
Six core skills, 25 exercise types, and AI that meets you at your level — all built around Japanese specifically.
Kana Before Kanji
Learn hiragana and katakana through listen-and-tap, matching, and writing exercises. By lesson 10 you'll read natively — before touching a single kanji.
Kanji With Context
Kanji are introduced with radicals, readings, and sentence examples. Spaced repetition schedules reviews so you retain 2,000+ characters long-term.
Keigo & Register
Dialog exercises switch between casual, polite, and humble speech so you learn when to use です/ます, お／ご prefixes, and honorific verbs.
Particles Through Practice
は vs が, に vs で, を vs から — particle choice is drilled through gap-fill exercises with instant feedback and grammar tips on mistakes.
JLPT N5–N1 Progression
Courses map directly to JLPT levels. Every grammar point, vocabulary item, and kanji is tagged with its JLPT level so you can target your next exam.
Anime & Real Japanese
Practice with real Japanese you'll hear in everyday life, business meetings, and media — not just textbook phrases.
