How we choose and review topics
Each guide is built around one learner question and one next action. Before publishing or substantially updating a guide, we check that its purpose does not duplicate a neighbouring article, that internal links lead to the most relevant guide or public practice page, and that the advice can be followed by a learner without buying an unspecified product.
Japanese examples
Short examples written to demonstrate a grammar or reading pattern are constructed teaching examples unless a source is explicitly named. We do not present constructed lines as quotations from a game or manga. Explanations of particles, word order, counters, and casual speech are written as practical beginner models rather than universal rules.
Games, manga, and product details
Platform availability, language options, menu labels, and product behaviour can vary by edition or change over time. Guides identify the relevant version when that distinction matters and qualify details that are not universal. LevelKana beta behaviour is described as current at the article's review date rather than promised as permanent.
Corrections and updates
Substantive changes update the visible review date and structured metadata. If you notice an inaccurate Japanese example, version-specific claim, broken link, or unclear explanation, email [email protected] with the article URL and the section that needs attention.
