I've been meaning to write a blog post about this, but here's a quick list (I've finally started to learn Japanese):

Human Japanese - basically an interactive textbook, with audio clips and interactive quizzes. Probably the best of the bunch.

Pocket Japanese - based on several series of podcasts, for different skill levels. Each lesson has a ~10min podcast, sentence by sentence breakdown, ~1-4min review track, vocabulary flashcards, and written grammar lesson. Interface can be a bit annoying, but the content and features are good.

iKana - for learning Hiragana and Katakana

AccelaStudy Japanese - for pure vocabulary cramming, very polished.

To the Lingt team - if an iPhone app isn't already on your roadmap, it definitely should be. It's a ridiculously convenient way to learn a language.



Thanks for this list. I took japanese in high school for several years and wanted a way to refresh and expand on it.

I wonder if there are as many resources for korean.
