Listening

Listening plays a word aloud and asks you to pick it from four options. It builds the listening skill: matching a sound to the word it belongs to.

How an item works

  1. An audio clip plays.
  2. You choose the matching word from the four options.
  3. Your answer is checked, then the reveal names the word.

Two listening exercises

  • Listening Vocabulary: hear the word, pick its meaning in English. Counts toward Vocabulary and Listening.
  • Listening Recall: hear the word, pick the word you heard. Counts toward Listening.
  • Options that sound the same as the answer are left out. Both work when you study in romaji.

Replaying the audio

Hear the clip again two ways:

  • Tap the play control on the audio player.
  • Space replays it on a desktop.

A listening session needs sound

If audio is unavailable you land on an Audio is required screen. Turn sound on, then press Retry.
