Why intermediate Japanese needs its own flashcard deck
Once the basics are behind you, Japanese study shifts to compound kanji, conjugation patterns and set grammar phrases, and a stack of intermediate Japanese flashcards built from your own lesson material keeps those items in front of you on a schedule.
- Pair each kanji with its on and kun readings and one example compound.
- Keep one grammar pattern per card, with a full sentence showing its use.
- Add new cards in small daily batches so reviews do not pile up.
- Review your weakest cards first, then finish with a short mixed set.
Cards from your material
Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or images of pages. The AI pulls out terms, readings and example sentences into flashcards.
Spaced repetition
Cards you find hard come back sooner, and cards you know move further apart, so review time goes to the items you are most likely to forget.
Study anywhere
Study in your browser on the free plan. Paid plans add export to Anki, PDF, DOCX and CSV for use on other devices.
How it works
Upload your lesson files
Add a PDF, slide deck, set of notes or a photo of a textbook page.
Review the generated cards
Check the kanji, readings, meanings and example sentences, and edit any card before you start studying.
Study on a schedule
Work through your daily cards and let spaced repetition decide when each one returns.
Generic decks rarely match the book or course you are using. Uploading your own chapter notes or slides means each card reflects the vocabulary and grammar your class actually covers, with the example sentences your teacher chose.
Spaced repetition does the scheduling for you, so new material is added in small batches and older cards keep coming back until they are automatic. The free plan includes 3 generations per month, and paid plans remove that limit.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for intermediate Japanese grammar?
Most learners do well with 15 to 30 new cards per session, adding a few new grammar patterns each day and reviewing older ones. Keep each card to one pattern with an example sentence so its meaning is clear.
Should kanji and vocabulary be on separate cards?
Putting a kanji on one side and its reading and meaning on the other works well at this level. Compound words are easier to learn as their own cards with example sentences, so mix both types in your deck.
Can I export my Japanese flashcards to Anki?
Yes, but export is a paid feature. Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export for $99.90 a year or $9.99 a month, while the free plan lets you study in the browser.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. You can start on the free plan without a credit card, and students with a school email get 40% off paid plans.
