Improve Your Listening Skills and Pass the JLPT N4 with Confidence

Welcome to your JLPT N4 Listening Practice Video Hub โ€” the perfect place to improve your Japanese listening skills and get fully prepared for the Japanese-Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) N4. Our video content is designed specifically for learners who already have a foundation in basic Japanese and are ready to take the next step toward intermediate-level proficiency.


๐Ÿ” What is the JLPT N4 Listening Section?

The JLPT N4 Listening section tests your ability to:

  • Understand conversations about everyday topics
  • Follow longer dialogues and monologues
  • Grasp key points, situations, and intentions
  • Listen for details like times, locations, and actions

Unlike the N5 level, N4 listening includes more natural and slightly faster speech, as well as longer sentence structures and more grammar patterns.

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ You’ll hear conversations that take place in restaurants, schools, train stations, and other real-life situations. Some questions involve listening to instructions, requests, or polite conversations.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Why Listening Practice is Crucial at the N4 Level

The N4 level is a bridge between beginner and intermediate Japanese. Mastering the listening section at this level means you can:

  • Understand spoken Japanese in common social and work situations
  • Communicate more naturally when traveling or living in Japan
  • Build a solid foundation for N3 and beyond

๐ŸŽฏ Practicing with listening videos helps you get used to real-world speed and pronunciation, while also teaching you how to listen for meaning, not just words.
