Grammar Deep Dive

Master Japanese Particles

Particles are the glue of Japanese sentences. Master them and everything else becomes easier.

は (wa) vs が (ga)

は (wa) marks the topic — what the sentence is about. が (ga) marks the subject — who/what performs the action.

学生です。I am a student. (Topic: me)
食べました。I ate it. (Subject: I did the eating)
Download Worksheets →

に (ni) vs で (de)

に (ni) indicates destination, time, or indirect object. で (de) indicates location of action or means/method.

学校行きます。I go to school. (Destination)
教室勉強します。I study in the classroom. (Location of action)

Verb Pairs

Intransitive vs Transitive Verbs じどうし・たどうし

One of the trickiest parts of Japanese grammar — made simple with our side-by-side comparison.

自動詞 — Intransitive

Verbs that describe actions happening by themselves. No direct object. The subject undergoes the action.

JapaneseReadingMeaning
あく (aku)to open (by itself)
しまる (shimaru)to close (by itself)
こわれる (kowareru)to break (by itself)
おちる (ochiru)to fall

他動詞 — Transitive

Verbs that describe actions performed by someone/something on a direct object. Someone does the action.

JapaneseReadingMeaning
あける (akeru)to open (something)
しめる (shimeru)to close (something)
こわす (kowasu)to break (something)
おとす (otosu)to drop (something)

FAQ

Questions Every Day

Japan-bound and MNC professionals both. Still unsure? One honest conversation sorts it.

What JLPT level do I need to work in Japan?

N2 is the standard for most professional roles. N3 is enough for Skilled Worker Visa (SSW) categories like caregiving and hospitality. IT engineers with N3 can qualify if technical skills are strong. We prepare you for both with JLPT mock tests from N4 onwards.

How long does it take to reach N2 from zero?

Most dedicated learners reach N2 in 12–18 months with 5 sessions per week. Our free demo includes a personalised level assessment and exact timeline for your situation.

Can I get a job in India with Japanese?

Yes. Toyota, Honda, Sony, NTT Data, Hitachi, Canon all have India operations. Bilingual professionals earn 30–40% more. Less than 0.1% of Indians speak Japanese — almost zero competition for these roles once you're certified.

I only want to learn for anime/culture. Is that okay?

Absolutely. Passion is the best motivator. From anime/gaming, many reach N3–N2 and move into subtitling, localisation, voice direction, and content creation paying ₹4–12L remotely. Others pivot into teaching or MNC careers. The key is structure.

What is the MEXT scholarship?

MEXT is Japan's fully-funded government scholarship covering tuition, accommodation, and ~¥117,000/month stipend. Most pathways require N2 or above. We prepare students specifically for MEXT eligibility as part of the N2 track.

Can I learn from scratch? I don't know any Japanese.

Yes, completely from scratch. Hiragana and Katakana in the first sessions, then structured Kanji progression. Many students who struggled elsewhere find our method far more manageable.

What happens in the free demo class?

A live 45-minute class — you experience our teaching style, get a personalised level assessment, and leave with a clear roadmap. No sales pressure. Just a real, useful class.
