Thanks
I have just found your site and this is honestly amazing! I’m Russian trying to learn Japanese and I am really glad for this to exist! Thank you for audio version of the text, the test is also helps a lot!
Glad you found us! Enjoy learning Japanese.
Thanks for this! Question: How to read “#1”? (Or #2 etc?) Ichiban, niban, etc?
Excellent question! When written as “#1” it is usually pronounced ナンバーワン (number one), but it could be written as 一番 which would be いちばん. It may depend on the speaker, though.
Sound quality seems better on this web site than in the downloaded reading/sound files. Are they the same recordings? Both are excellent set of resources for N5. Many thanks.
Should be the same. However, the player that opens the downloaded MP3 could have a different playback setting as your browser audio player.
This is very helpful. Thank you 🙂
Glad you like it! We’ll do more like this.
