JAPANESE VOCABULARY

HOW TO SPEAK (REAL) JAPANESE

Building a strong vocabulary is the cornerstone of mastering any language, and our Japanese Vocabulary Section is designed to help you express yourself on a variety of topics. There’s no point in memorizing grammar if you don’t know what things are called, so we recommend that you begin your Japanese language journey right here. You can also explore specific Japanese words and expressions in our Culture section.

On this page, you’ll find the essential vocabulary to get started. Our vocabulary lists are carefully curated to cover a wide range of themes. Learning the most common 2000 words will allow you to understand about 80–90% of everyday spoken or written material, assuming you already have a basic understanding of grammar. Languages follow the so-called "Pareto Principle" (80/20 rule), where a small portion of vocabulary covers the majority of real-life communication.

Begin with Useful Expressions, mastering key Verbs, Adverbs, and Adjectives that form the foundation of daily conversation. Move on to practical categories like Numbers and telling the Time, which are vital for scheduling and understanding context. Talking about your Family, describing Colors, Shapes, and Sizes, or ordering Food and Drinks helps you interact naturally. Topics like Clothing, Weather, and Travel bring vocabulary into real-world experiences, while Law, Jobs, Shopping, and Health reflect daily needs. To go further, explore interests through Hobbies, Education, and Nature, or navigate modern life with terms related to Home, Technology and Feelings. For more specialized or advanced vocabulary, delve into Sports, Animals, War, and Politics—and understand even the informal side of the language with a dose of Swearing.

For now, we suggest you read the words several times a day so that you can recognize them when you come across them in a conversation or a text. Learning Japanese vocabulary will be a bit easier if you already know another languages like Chinese or Korean. Be sure to check out the Loanwords at the end if you want to speed up the memorisation process even further. After this, you can move on to the Grammar section, where you’ll see these words in action.
