Matt,

It seems that it isn’t working for me either. Maybe they have taken it down.

yeah, this file seems to have gone missing, is there a different download for Kanjilish? or is it just gone altogether?

One simple thing you can try is http://jisho.org/. You put in the word and it will give you the Japanese words and kanji.

…I would love to learn Japanese, but right now I’m just focused on being able to draw kanji symbols. I want to translate English to kanji so I can put it in some of my drawings i do. So far I know peace and destruction, and music. I want to use a translator to get self mutilation, too but I can’t find one. …Do you know of a free, no download service where i can do that?

Charles,

It used to be that way for Japanese as well. When I first started learning it seemed there was almost no study materials and very few books, most of which were outdated. Over the years though a lot of tools have been created. Especially in the last few years.

Thank you for your response.
One think that makes me happy about learning Japanese is that there are many sources that you may use in order to make your knowledge broader. You know, there’s a lot of stuff like anime, songs, games and websites such as this that are available for learners. On the other hand, for languages like German (I take a German course) it is quite hard to find tools that are helpful.

Charles,

Thank you for your comment. The add on won’t help you learn to read the kanji, but it does seem to help with recognition. It’s pretty cool as a fun to use tool.

Vanessa, if you are willing to put in a bit of time, then learning should be no problem at all. Also, the better your reason for learning the easier it will be to stay motivated.

Hi there,
This add-on looks like a great! I hope it helps me learning Japanese which, by the way, is a language that I really love. So thank you for the tip and keep up with the good work!
Thanks from Brazil!

yeah. i want to learn how to read, write, and talk in janpanese. sometimes movies have no english subtitles and its very frustrating to not know what they are saying. i did learn a couple words just by watching anime shows.
