Frequently asked questions

How many grammar points are on the JLPT N4?
This guide covers 61 N4 grammar points, organized across Kanji Sensei levels 9-18 so each pattern builds on the ones before it.
In what order should I study N4 grammar?
Follow the list top to bottom. The topics are sequenced by level, starting with forms like the potential and volitional and building up to patterns like keigo.
Do I need to finish N5 grammar first?
Yes. N4 grammar assumes you already know N5 basics like particles, the te-form, and plain form. If you are not confident with those yet, start with the free N5 grammar course.
