## Description

Learn the Japanese people actually speak — casual speech, slang, and the register switching textbooks skip. YabaiLingo is a serious spaced repetition (SRS) app for Japanese vocabulary, built around real sentences instead of isolated words.<br><br>SMART FLASHCARDS (SRS)<br>• 3,800+ words, every one with example sentences and native-quality audio<br>• Modern FSRS spaced repetition scheduling — each card comes back right before you&#39;d forget it<br>• Three review modes: recognition (read it), recall (produce it), and listening (hear it)<br>• No sessions or daily lesson gates — open the app, review what&#39;s due, done<br>• Undo button for fat-finger answers<br><br>SENTENCE MINING<br>• Found a word in an anime, manga, or conversation? Add it to your deck with your own example sentence<br>• Search the built-in dictionary or create fully custom cards<br>• Mined words get the same SRS scheduling as everything else<br><br>READING MODE<br>• Paste any Japanese text — an article, a tweet, song lyrics<br>• Every word becomes tappable, colour-coded by whether you know it<br>• See what percentage of the text you can read<br>• Tap an unknown word to see its meaning and add it to your deck with its sentence attached<br><br>STORIES WITH FULL AUDIO<br>• Voiced, chat-style stories in natural casual Japanese<br>• Tap any word for an instant gloss, Duolingo-style<br>• Comprehension questions test what characters actually said<br>• Illustrated picture stories with end-of-story quizzes<br><br>KANA, KANJI &amp; RADICALS<br>• Kana practice with mastery tracking<br>• Kanji broken into 80 radicals across 4 tiers, so characters stop looking like random strokes<br>• Kanji writing and context practice<br>• Browse vocabulary by situation — at the izakaya, arguing, texting — not just JLPT level<br><br>REAL JAPANESE, YOUR CHOICE<br>Japanese has rough pronouns, contractions, and slang you&#39;ll hear in the first five minutes of any anime. YabaiLingo teaches them, with register notes so you know what&#39;s safe to say to your boss. Prefer to keep it clean? Toggle explicit content off any time.<br><br>BUILT FOR SERIOUS LEARNERS<br>• Furigana and romaji toggles — wean yourself off at your own pace<br>• Audio for every word and sentence<br>• Progress sync across devices with Google sign-in<br>• Stats dashboard with review heatmap<br>• Works offline once loaded
