JLPT

The Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) is a standardized exam designed to assess non-native speakers' Japanese language skills. It measures abilities across reading, listening, and vocabulary, with five levels from N5 (beginner) to N1 (advanced). The test helps learners evaluate their progress, employers recognize language proficiency, and educational institutions gauge Japanese language competence. It is widely recognized internationally and is held twice a year in many countries. Passing levels indicate increasing mastery of the language, from basic understanding to near-native fluency, serving as a valuable benchmark for learners and professionals alike.
