Your Complete Japanese-English Dictionary with AI Understanding
Jisho AI is a comprehensive Japanese-English and English-Japanese dictionary with a built-in AI tutor. Search thousands of words offline using kanji, kana, or romaji—instant results for words, phrases, and grammar. Get detailed entries with example sentences, audio pronunciation, and complete kanji breakdowns with readings. No internet required.
Students rely on Jisho AI for JLPT preparation and daily study. Travelers use it offline throughout Japan. Professionals keep it as their go-to reference for quick, accurate lookups.
What makes Jisho AI different is the AI tutor that helps you truly understand Japanese. Ask about grammar nuances, word choice, or cultural context, and get clear explanations in natural, conversational language. It's not just translation—it's understanding how the language really works.

Designed for Apple Platforms
The interface uses Liquid Glass design—content stays clear and readable while the UI adapts around you. No clutter, no distractions, just fluid interaction that feels natural on iOS.
The AI tutor runs on Apple Intelligence, processing everything on your device. Ask about grammar nuances, word choice, or cultural context—get instant, conversational answers without sending data anywhere. Complete privacy by default.
More Than Translation
Most apps translate word-by-word. Jisho AI helps you understand why Japanese works the way it does—when to use ありがとう versus ありがとうございます, how 海 differs from 湖, what makes a phrase polite or casual. The AI tutor answers these questions naturally, helping you build real comprehension.
Privacy Built-In
Everything stays on your device. Dictionary lookups happen locally. AI processing runs on-device using Apple Intelligence. No tracking, no data collection, no information shared with third parties. Your learning stays completely private.
Perfect For
Language learners who want deeper understanding beyond memorization. Students preparing for JLPT exams with comprehensive vocabulary support. Travelers exploring Japan who need reliable offline access. Professionals working with Japanese text who need quick, accurate reference. Anyone serious about learning Japanese contextually, not just word-by-word.
Learn Japanese with understanding, not just memorization.
