What Is the JLPT? A Quick Overview
The Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) is the world's most widely recognised certification for Japanese language ability. It is jointly conducted by the Japan Foundation and Japan Educational Exchanges and Services (JEES). The test is held twice a year in July and December and the New Delhi centre is among the most popular test venues in India.
The JLPT is divided into five levels:
• N5 — Easiest level. Tests basic understanding of Japanese learned in class.
• N4 — Tests understanding of basic Japanese in everyday situations.
• N3 — Bridge level between beginner and advanced. Covers everyday topics.
• N2 — Tests understanding of Japanese used in a wide range of everyday scenarios.
• N1 — Most difficult level. Tests comprehensive understanding of Japanese in all contexts.
N5 and N4 primarily evaluate classroom-learned Japanese (reading and listening). N3 acts as a stepping stone. N1 and N2 test fluency needed for actual everyday life in Japan essential for professionals and students planning to study or work in Japan.
