If you remember one or two kanji from a word, but not the whole thing, then just put "?" for the ones you don't know and the dictionary will find all the possible words that match. So even though you searched for べっど (beddo) it finds ベッド (beddo), (n) bed. It's also smart enough to look for katakana if you put in hiragana by mistake (or the other way around). Of course you can search for romaji, hiragana, katakana, English, kanji. Search for きぷ (kipu) by mistake and Deep Search will also find きっぷ (kippu), and ぎふ (gifu), and several other words which might be the one you're actually looking for. It looks for other similar spellings for your search and lists them as alternate suggestions. So this dictionary also has "Deep Search" to take care of that for you. The grammar smarts also understands adjectives, so it knows that おいしくなかった (oishikunakatta) is the past tense of the negative of おいしい (oishii), (adj) delicious.īeginners often mis-hear or mis-remember words. Or even further and search for たべられなかった (taberarenakatta) and find this is the "Past tense of the Regular Negative of the Able to Do form" of たべる (taberu). Go further and search for たべられない (taberarenai) and find it is the "Regular Negative of the Able to Do" form of たべる (taberu). Search for it using AI Japanese Dictionary and it will tell you that this is the "Able to Do" form of たべる (taberu), "(v1,vt) to eat". Search for たべられる (taberareru) in most dictionaries and you won't find anything. It understands Japanese grammar rules so you only need to enter the word as it is - and the dictionary works out the root word for you and then looks it up. Japanese Dictionary with Grammar has a built in reversing grammar engine. But one of the most frustrating things when you are a beginner is that you don't know enough grammar to work out what the root word is. Which is great if you've been studying for 10 years already. With most dictionaries you need to know the root word before you can find the word you're looking for. Japanese Dictionary with Grammar takes the pain out of looking up words in a language you're still just learning.
