Learn Japanese with Us
Japanese ( Nihongo) is a language spoken by over 130 million people, mainly in Japan, but also by Japanese emigrant communities around the world.
It is a member of the Japonic language family, whose relation to other language groups, particularly to Korean and the suggested Altaic language family, is debated but mostly seen as discredited.
Japanese Language Certification: The most widely accepted Japanese language certification worldwide is JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test). JLPT was started in 1984 for non-native speakers of the Japanese language. Till 2009 there were 4 levels and currently, there are 5 levels (N5, N4, N3, N2, and N1) in JLPT. Among these N5 is the basic level and N1 is the highest level of certification. The biggest advantage of passing the N1 level is that you get the advantages of the “Point-based Preferential Immigration Treatment System for Highly Skilled Foreign Professionals”. Under this privilege, it is possible to get a visa for a period of 5 years, and also it opens the door for a chance to have permanent residency in Japan. It also helps get visas for your spouse and parents. This is really the biggest boon for foreign nationals.
