Kana no quiz is a little educational tool, written in Python, to memorize Japanese kana (hiragana & katakana) pronouncing in an easy way.
The method is quite simple: a kana appear randomly and you have to find its romaji transcription; either by choosing the good answer from a random list containing several possibilities or by directly typing the answer through a text entry. This second method of course is more complicated.
Kana no quiz may thus fit the needs of a complete beginner who has to start easily and learn step by step, or a wizard who just wants to confirm his/her absolute master of the kana.
This free/libre software works both on Unix (GNU/Linux, FreeBSD), Mac OS X and Windows using the same GTK+ interface. It has been translated in several languages, and many quiz options are configurable.
Kana images have been initially modelled in SVG and are placed under the Free Art License (http://artlibre.org/licence.php/lalgb.html).
