Choose the answer that best fits in the blank ("___") in each sentence.
Please answer only the questions you think you know. If you don't know the answer, don't guess! The questions get harder as the test progresses, so don't worry if you can't complete it - that is normal.
Note that the readings for kanji are displayed in parentheses after the kanji itself, for example "本(ほん)".
Please note: You must learn to read hiragana before you arrive at school. We strongly recommend learning to read hiragana, then taking this test.
The Complete Beginner class (for students with no previous Japanese study experience) only starts on the first Monday of each month. If you are a complete beginner, but have signed up for a different start date, you must either change your registration, or you will be placed in a special class, with reduced hours.
