Human Japanese App Reviews

Very detailed literature! Easily explains not only all aspects of speaking and writing but also covers culture and Japanese history. Learning a language has never been more intriguing!

This is absolutely the best app for getting started in Japanese learning. In just a few months I could start stringing sentences together and I find the teachings amazingly easy to follow . I would give 5 stars 100x for this app and the intermediate version.

Better than most language apps by teaching from ground up grammar rather than just having you memorize phrases. More developed understanding obtained.

Very easy to use! Systematic learning builds a foundation for further learning. Culture introduction is also included making it more interesting to learn.

Seriously

I wasnt able to find a good Japanese app previous to this one. I love the light hearted voice, the cultural input, and I have never seen an app that walks one through the kana strokes before as part of a lesson rather than just flash cards. Its a little pricy for an app (Im used to buying the 99-1.99 ones), but understandably so- clearly it was well thought out and hard worked on. I downloaded the free version first and within a few minuets of use bought both the beginner and intermediate sets. Im really impressed so far.

Has examples which I can understand!

This app is fantastic for beginners as it teaches you the background of the language. The origin and the purpose of the Characters are fascinating. He really does make learning it interesting.

This app is very useful, it takes you one baby step at a time into Japanese grammar. I can see somebody criticizing the way the lessons are arranged or how in depth it goes. But honestly if you are just starting this will be very helpful, you will grasp different concepts of the language without getting overwhelmed. By the time you finish you will be able to tackle more in-depth books about grammar or expand vocabulary a lot easier. Great app for beginners. And the fact that theres audio and a grammar break down in every example, but only if you click on it, lets you practice every single time you read an exercise/example.

Ive learned so much so quickly. The tone of the lessons is kind of informal and fun but very informative which is perfect for my learning style.

This is by far the best way Ive tried to self-learn Japanese. Ive tried a PC program like Rosetta and an audio program, but this is by far the best way to learn for me. Its very well explained and has audio clips from a native speaker who speaks clearly so you can hear the subtle sounds. It has easy navigation for chapter reviews, tests, and a great game for helping test/memorize the katakana/hiragana characters. Its also decently priced for the full version and the lite version has a lot to offer so you can make an informed decision whether to purchase the full app or not. I couldnt rate this app higher or recommend it more. Thanks for this wonderful app! I also recommend anki app for flash card style help. It pairs well with this app.

I have tried countless apps and have yet to find one this amazing. Most apps just teach you the symbols and some basic words. This app actually teaches you the language, not just some words.

My ever-growing interest in Japanese culture demanded I finally start learning the language in the hopes that I might one day be capable of visiting the country without being at a total loss. I stumbled upon this app and was not disappointed. Brilliantly written chapters have me feeling like Im sitting one-on-one with a Sensei that not only teaches me about the language itself, but about the history and culture of Japan as well. This app has been the perfect resource for me to learn about Japanese language and culture without over-burdening my brain with too much information at any given time, which makes it easier for me to come back, eager to learn more, time and time again. Like the name suggests, this app understands that the reader is a human and never feels like so many of those stuffy, insufferable text-books that I have encountered all too often throughout my education. This app is vastly superior to any book I could have purchased for the same price, especially considering that it is interactive and I can tap just about any Japanese word or phrase to hear it read aloud, to name but one feature. There are even quizzes (and sometimes games) at the end of each chapter to track your progress. Passing each quiz means unlocking the following chapter, though this can easily be disabled if you so choose. This is a truly wonderful app and I believe that people would be less weary of educational reading if more of it was structured similarly to Human Japanese.

This is without a doubt the best foreign language programs out there. It use a comprehensive and old school approach of teaching Japanese that immerses you in both the language and culture. I am terrible at learning new languages but I found this program to work great. This program works best if you want to make notes and put in a little extra effort. It would still work as a casual learning program if you repeated chapters. Great app for those interested in Japanese. I would also recommend there PC platform too.

As someone new to the Japanese language this app is fun and easy to understand. Its an absolute must!!

I started learning Japanese (にほんじん) with this app. Im still a beginner, but Im making progress. This app has a great way of describing the language and keeping it interesting. The quizzes at the end of each chapter have been great at testing my knowledge. Im looking forward to continuing my education with this app.

Great explanations of definitions that makes memorizing things quite simple.

This is by far the best resource for learning a language. If there was a Human series for every language, I think wed be seeing many more bi- and multilingual people around. Im so excited to have finished up the first text and to move on to Intermediate!

I love this app. I am using this in conjunction with the Genki textbook and various apps for learning kanji. I have the most fun and feel like I learn the most/fastest with this app. Fun, educational and very effective!

I was a bit concerned about the price of this app at first. But after having tried other online resources with little success I finally decided to buy it, and Im glad I did. The text is incredibly well written and easy to understand. Nothing like reading a dry and boring textbook. Although I havent finished the beginner course yet I went ahead and purchased the bundle that includes the intermediate course as well since I know Ill enjoy it as much as this one. My only wish is that there would be more review and grammar exercises available for practice. Other than that its an excellent app and I highly recommend it to anyone studying the language.
