# JLPT N2 kanji list

The JLPT N2 is the level of newspapers and of working in Japanese. These are the 383 kanji this course adds after the [N3 kanji](https://moji.ninja/n3-kanji/), grouped into 57 small themed sets. Each one links to a page with its readings, its stroke order and any example words.

The JLPT has not published official kanji lists since 2010, so dividing kanji into these levels is this course's own choice. N3 and N2 are the former level 2 list: N3 takes the kanji of the first three school years and then the most frequent, and N2 the rest. N1 takes its kanji from the rest of the jōyō list. A few everyday kanji, like 誰 and 猫, come earlier. Romaji are written the way you type them in the app (juu, not jū). For the two kinds of reading, see [on'yomi and kun'yomi](https://moji.ninja/onyomi-kunyomi/).

## Frequently asked questions

**Q: How many kanji are in JLPT N2?**
There is no official list. This one has 383 new kanji, which with the 679 before them makes 1,062.

**Q: Do I need the N3 kanji before starting N2?**
It helps, but you don't have to. In Moji Ninja you can start at any level: pick it on the Kanji tab.

**Q: How long does it take to learn the N2 kanji?**
At 5 new kanji a day, a first pass through all 383 takes about 11 weeks. Reviews then keep them fresh.

**Q: Why do some kanji have no example word?**
Each example uses no kanji but the one you are learning, and many of these kanji appear almost only in compounds with other kanji.
