Home | Japanese Kanji | JLPT Level N5 Kanji
We have grouped a small set of 14 JLPT N5 Japanese Kanji that are related to Directions
The table contains Kanji and its OnYomi, KunYomi and Meaning. OnYomi and KunYomi represents reading of a Kanji. In most of the cases, if a Kanji is used alone, then the KunYomi reading is used and if that Kanji is combined with another Kanji then OnYomi reading is used.
This is an easy milestone to cross. Let us get started.
