About
Learn Japanese. Discover Japan.
NihongoHub is an AI-powered platform that brings Japanese practice and real Japan together in one place — JLPT-style quizzes, culture deep dives, and a clickable map of all 47 prefectures.
Why we built it
Most apps drill vocabulary but leave you guessing about the bigger picture — where you are, what's next, and what Japan is actually like beyond the textbook. We wanted one place that teaches the language and shows the country it belongs to.
How it works
- AI practice. Fresh JLPT-style questions (N5–N1) are generated on demand, so you never repeat the same test.
- Explore the 47 prefectures. A clickable map with data-grounded stats, local food and sights, and quiz battles for each prefecture.
- Culture & travel context. Etiquette, seasons, and the Japanese that real situations call for — shrines, izakayas, trains.
- Five languages. English, 繁體中文, Español, ไทย, and Bahasa Indonesia.
Honest by design
We don't show fake progress numbers or invented social proof. When another tool or guide is genuinely better for you, we'll point you to it — even when it isn't ours. Some links are affiliate links, always disclosed.
Your data & ranking
Your progress lives in your browser. Optional country ranking is anonymous and opt-in: if you turn it on, we store only a coarse country code (from your connection) and a 0–1 readiness score under an anonymous id — never your name, email, or answers. Rankings reset monthly, and you can ignore the feature entirely with no effect on learning.
