## Description

Know what to say at the register, the clinic, the izakaya. 1,409 phrases, audio on every one, 64 scenes you play through. Start free.

Speak real Japanese from day one, not textbook grammar you'll forget.

Laifu teaches whole phrases real people actually say, so you know exactly what to say at the konbini, at the dentist, on a date, or when something goes wrong. Every phrase comes with clear audio and a chat example.

Whether you live in Japan, you're planning a trip, you're learning for someone you love, or you just love the language, this is built for you.

WHAT YOU GET

1,378 real-life phrases
Across 23 everyday categories: Basics, Food & Restaurants, Shopping, Sightseeing, Airport & Transportation, Hotel & Accommodation, Convenience Store, Drugstore, Clinic, Dentist, Hair Salon, School, Drinking & Nightlife, Casual Conversations, Dating & Romance, Compliments & Rapport, Small Talk & Culture, Saying No Politely, Polite Expressions, Onomatopoeia, Summer, and Trouble & Help.

A chat example for every single phrase
Each phrase comes with a short chat-style dialogue, so you see exactly how it lands in a real back-and-forth, not floating on its own.

Audio on every phrase
Tap any phrase or dialogue line to hear it spoken, with per-character voices and a slow mode for the tricky ones.

Say it out loud and get scored
Practice your pronunciation by speaking each phrase. Laifu listens and scores how close you got, so you build the confidence to actually say it.

Play through real scenes
57 play-through scenarios put you in the moment: order at an izakaya, check into a hotel, grab something at the konbini, take a taxi. The characters talk back, and you handle the whole exchange.

English, reading, Japanese, your way
Show or hide each with one tap, and switch the reading between furigana and romaji, so you can read along while you're learning and test yourself once you're ready.
