Every body and health word on the JLPT lists with its reading and meaning, the beginner ones in a real sentence. Filter it, flip it into flashcards, or carry it on your Lock Screen with Lock&Learn Japanese.
The parts of the body in Japanese, from head to foot, plus the basic health words that go with them: sick, hospital, medicine, pain. All from the JLPT vocabulary lists, each with its reading and meaning.
In Lock&Learn Japanese these words sit in their level packs (JLPT N5, JLPT N4, JLPT N3, JLPT N2 and more), one per glance on the widget: a word waits in kanji, the way the test shows it; one tap reveals the reading, the meaning and a real sentence. JLPT N5 is free; every other pack opens with a free preview and another word unlocks daily.
Type to filter by word, reading or meaning. Flashcards hides the reading and the meaning until you tap a row; Shuffle deals the list in a new order.

Word lists: the widely used JLPT N5 to N1 sets after Jonathan Waller's tanos.co.uk lists (the JLPT publishes no official lists). Definitions adapted from JMdict by the EDRDG, licensed CC BY-SA 4.0. Example sentences are original Lock&Learn content.
The table lists 65 body and health words from the JLPT vocabulary lists: the parts of the body with their readings and meanings, and the words you need at a pharmacy or a doctor's.
16 from JLPT N5, 21 from JLPT N4, 14 from JLPT N3, 9 from JLPT N2, 5 from JLPT N1. The level chip on each row says where the word sits, so you can stop at your level or read ahead. Beginner-level words carry a real example sentence; the rest show word, reading and meaning, with their sentences in the app.
Install Lock&Learn Japanese, then touch and hold your Lock Screen, tap Customize, tap the widget area and choose Lock&Learn Japanese. Enable the level packs these words come from (JLPT N5, JLPT N4, JLPT N3 and more). A word waits in kanji, the way the test shows it; one tap reveals the reading, the meaning and a real sentence.
Yes. The app is free on iOS: JLPT N5 is free, every other pack opens with a free preview, and another word unlocks daily. Lock&Learn+ is an optional upgrade that opens every pack at once, offered as a yearly plan or a one-time lifetime purchase.
