About Print E-mail

The StudyJapanese site is a free place for Japanese language learning and cultural exchange. A place where we learn together!

The site's prime feature is the Flash Card Trainer , containing lots of vocabulary and Kanji from several text books and other collections. You can also add your own vocabulary from your course. The site also has other features such as a Language Reference section, containing grammar and other key points in Japanese. The dictionary and Kanji lookup are other useful tools for your studies. All of this is complemented with a number of beginner lessons , to get you started. The forum lets you discuss language and other Japanese topics with other learners as well as native Japanese.

StudyJapanese Team 

The site was started a few years ago by Johan Eliasson. He started this site as a hobby and a way to make a tool for Japanese Studies that he would like to use himself, hoping it would become a big lively place where people learn from each other.

The site is driven by an editorial team, with the intention to improve the content and to help other users. Currently, the team consists of the following people.

  • Maz - A Japanese airplane otaku who likes to help us Nihongo otakus
  • Shizu - A Japanese woman with a fantastic drive to help others
  • crypticstar - An American studying Japanese
  • Tony - An American teacher who loves music and languages 
  • DanielN - A Swede who'd rather be in Japan
  • Johan -  A Swede passioned about computers, cooking and Japanese

If you would like to participate, please contact me. You can also start helping out immediately just by signing up and to start sharing vocabulary in the trainer or helping others in the forum.

Credits

A lot of work has been put into this site, but it wouldn't have been anything at all if it wasn't for all the devoted people giving away things for free on the internet.

Credits goes to
  • Jim Breen of the Monash University, for the great JMDict and KanjiDic Japanese dictionaries, that this site is using for the dictionary lookups.
  • the Mambo team, who has built the free platform for web sites, that I built this site upon.
  • All mambo component developers; E.g. Chanh Ong for the mosCom components, Mambo Joe and DJ Trail for the Community Builder component.
  • The guys at Two Shoes Mambo Factory for the Simple Board Forum used in this site.
  • Kai Erste for loads of glossary used in the Trainer.
  • David Vignoni from Icon King for the Nuvola icons that are used at some places in this site.
  • Keith Smillie for most of the grammar section in this site.

Probably loads of other people should be attributed, but I don't remember if I downloaded and used anything else. Please freshen up my memory if you recognise something.
