JLPT N3 grammar in 8 weeks
JLPT N3 grammar broken into an 8-week, 6-day-a-week schedule — three to four points a day, each with example sentences and furigana. No planning required: open it and today's lesson is already there.
All 176 JLPT N3 grammar points, laid out as 8 weeks × 6 days — 48 days, 3–4 points a day, 15–20 minutes a sitting. Nothing to plan: open it and the day's lesson is there. The sixth day of each week adds nothing new and is spent re-comparing whichever pairs that week tends to blur.
The order does not follow a textbook's contents page; it is rebuilt around how the patterns are used, so the ones that get confused land in the same lesson. そうだ／ようだ／みたいだ／らしい are settled in a single day, ために versus ように gets its dividing line stated once, and the five わけ patterns sit together — taught apart, these are almost guaranteed to blur.
It starts with how you would say it in Chinese and why that cannot be carried over, and only then gives the Japanese form. That is where the difficulty sits for Chinese speakers: a structure Chinese does not have will not reveal itself from Japanese examples alone.
What the pattern attaches to — dictionary form, ない form, whether a na-adjective keeps its な — is set out as a formula in its own highlighted block rather than buried in a paragraph. This is the part people lose marks on needlessly.
Four to six per lesson, every one with kana readings and a Chinese translation, and every one plays on tap. The situations stay in the places learners actually meet: part-time work, school, renting, the news.
Confusable sets are laid side by side in a table, and each lesson closes with three multiple-choice questions, every one with an explanation of why that answer.
176 points averages 3–4 a day, and a lesson takes about 20 minutes. Six days a week leaves one for slack — catch up if you fell behind, revise if you did not. Seven days straight tends to be abandoned entirely the first time a day is missed.
Solid N4 conjugation. N3's passive, causative and conditionals all build on it, so if 〜ば, 〜たら and 〜なら still run together, go back to those first.
Grammar is one part of it. N3 also wants roughly 3,750 words and 650 kanji, plus listening and reading. Grammar gets you through the question stems; the score comes from vocabulary and listening.
All 176 points are free. The app shows ads, and a subscription only removes them — no lesson is locked.
N3 goes down easier once the beginner grammar is solid.
