App Onomatope オノマトペ · version 1.0 · last updated: 4 September 2026

Something in the Japanese looks wrong

Please tell me — this is the most useful kind of message I can get. Onomatopoeia are exactly the material where a difference stated half a degree too strongly teaches an untruth: ころころ and ごろごろ differ by degree, not by category, so a sentence meant to rule one of them out can end up ruling out nothing. Include the word and the sentence if you can.

"Nobody actually says that"

Also worth writing about, and not the same complaint as the one above. A form can be correctly built and still be something no one says — and then the app has no right to teach it. Tell me which sentence, and where you have heard it differently.

A question felt unfair

If one of the wrong options looked like it could also be correct, that is a bug in the content, not in your Japanese. Tell me which question it was.

Why is there no typing

Deliberate. Typing お召し上がりください in kana on a phone is a punishment, and what is being measured is your choice between four similar sounds, not your thumb. You answer by tapping tiles and picking a variant — which means a typo can never be mistaken for not knowing, and the statistics say something about the teaching alone.

Why is there no audio

Not yet. The material has carried, from the first day, a note on which sentences a synthesizer reads correctly — and onomatope it reads correctly, because it is not casual speech. The pronunciation button arrives together with the rest of the family.

I lost my progress

Progress lives on the device. Deleting the app deletes it, and there is nothing to restore it from — there is no server and no account.
