JLPT N5 Vocabulary Anki Deck

Studying for the JLPT N5? I converted the full N5 vocabulary list from Tuttle Publishing's flashcard PDF into an Anki deck split across 11 chapters, so you can study at your own pace on your phone, tablet, or desktop with spaced repetition — the most efficient way to memorize vocabulary.

What's in the deck?

Every card has five fields: kanji, reading (hiragana/katakana), romaji, part of speech, and English meaning. The deck includes two card types:

• Recognize — see the kanji, recall the meaning
• Recall — see the English meaning, recall the Japanese word

The reading (furigana) on Recognize cards is configurable — you can set it to show or hide by default. The intro card has a toggle to pick your preference, and you can also tap "tap to show/hide reading" on any card to change it on the fly. Your choice is remembered across sessions.

Chapters

The vocabulary is split into 11 sub-decks so you can study in manageable chunks or focus on specific sections:
