Can illustrations make Japanese vocabulary easier to remember?
by•
Hi everyone! 👋
I've been building KotobaHoshi (ことば星), a free Japanese vocabulary learning app inspired by a simple idea:
One word, one illustration.
As someone learning Japanese myself, I wanted to make vocabulary learning more visual, enjoyable, and memorable.
KotobaHoshi currently includes:
7,800+ JLPT N5–N1 vocabulary words
A unique watercolor-style illustration for every word
Pronunciation audio and example sentences
Japanese, English, and Chinese explanations
FSRS-based spaced repetition
The first version is already live at https://kotobahoshi.com/en/ 🌸
I'm curious: Do visual illustrations help you remember new vocabulary? Or do you prefer traditional flashcards?
I'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions before our Product Hunt launch! 🌟
