FAQ
Frequently asked questions about learning Japanese
The two syllabaries (hiragana and katakana) each have 46 base characters. With 15 to 20 minutes of daily practice, most of our students master hiragana in 1 to 2 weeks and katakana in another 2 to 3 weeks. The method: visual mnemonics (each character paired with a memorable image) plus speed-reading drills to anchor them in long-term memory. After 3 weeks you can actually read Japanese, and even without always understanding the meaning, that is a real victory.
For speaking, kanji are not essential, you can hold solid conversations using only hiragana and katakana. For reading (menus, signs, social media, manga), kanji quickly become indispensable. JLPT N3 (intermediate) requires about 650 kanji, N2 about 1,000. Our courses introduce kanji progressively, always within real reading contexts, never as abstract lists to memorise.
Three real challenges: 1) The three writing systems to learn in parallel (hiragana, katakana, kanji); 2) The SOV word order (Subject-Object-Verb), the verb always comes at the end of the sentence; 3) Grammatical particles (wa, ga, wo, ni, de, to...) with no direct equivalent in English. The good news: Japanese grammar is very regular, pronunciation is simple (five pure vowels), and Japanese people deeply appreciate the efforts of foreigners.
Yes. The JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test) is the benchmark international certification, ranging from N5 (beginner, 800 words) to N1 (advanced, 10,000 words and kanji). We offer tailored tracks for each level, covering targeted vocabulary, grammar review and full mock exams. N4 or N3 is often required for a work visa or studies in Japan, N2 is typically needed for professional roles in Japanese companies.
We always start with teineigo (the desu/masu form), the standard polite level, used with anyone you don't know well, in shops and in neutral situations. It is the safest and most useful level. Casual Japanese will come naturally afterwards. Professional keigo is an advanced stage, essential only if you work in a Japanese company or deal with Japanese clients.
Absolutely, and it is the number one motivation for most of our Japanese students. Anime exposes you to natural pronunciation and everyday vocabulary. Our teachers can integrate your favourite series and manga into lessons: breaking down dialogue, the vocabulary used by specific characters, and authentic expressions. One caveat: the Japanese of shōnen anime (Naruto, Dragon Ball) tends to be informal and sometimes overly masculine or aggressive, our teachers help you calibrate what can actually be used in real life.
Hiragana, katakana and basic vocabulary can be picked up through self-study. But natural conversation, correct pronunciation and cultural codes (politeness levels, indirect communication) genuinely need a native teacher. Targumi students who moved from an app to our classes consistently report progress three times faster in speaking, thanks to small groups and immediate feedback.
The most effective method combines live classes with a native teacher (for speaking and for mastering cultural codes), passive immersion (anime in original Japanese, Japanese podcasts, J-pop music) and regular kanji practice. Targumi offers exactly this format, with regular live classes in small groups, supported by tailored exercises between sessions.
One plan, Full access, gives you every language, live small-group classes with native teachers, interactive lessons and the community: $8.50 instead of $17 a week, $24.50 instead of $49 a month or $49.50 instead of $99 a quarter, after a 7-day free trial. The Platform plan, without live classes, costs $9.50 instead of $19 a month. Launch offer until October 31 at 11:59 pm (Paris time), with a limited number of spots: you keep the reduced price for as long as you stay subscribed.
100% online. When live classes are scheduled for this language, they take place in small groups via Google Meet; the schedule is in the platform. Interactive lessons stay accessible 24/7.
