Introduction In this handbook, we list 1300+ verbs that you may find on the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) based on the structure of the verb. Since Japanese verbs change structure at the end of the word, this handbook serves as a reverse-lookup dictionary. Since most student wordlists are ordered either by frequency or alphabetically, this makes it more of a challenge on the student to draw conclusions from words that share the same structure, and therefore similar grammatical and syntactic structures. This handbook is intended for the beginner or intermediate student who is actively increasing vocabulary and learning when, where, and how Kanji fit into the verb structure. Since conjugation is a beginner level task and already heavily covered in most publications, this handbook ignores individual verb conjugation. Why would we want to use a verb list like this? There are several reasons: 1.

The Kanji associated with them are easier to learn. Since we have already grouped Kanji according to how many syllables are in them, you can start with the smallest group and learn those first. You can use any learning method you prefer, such as putting them into a flashcard or other spaced repetition program.

2.

A lot of verbs have pairs with slightly different endings (for example intransitive and transitive verbs). With the lists here you can compare verbs with the same endings and the kinds of meanings they carry. We've also included a list of Kanji with multiple entries at the end of this book which shows whether a verb is intransitive or transitive (where applicable).

For example, in English a verb like "pile" can be either transitive or intransitive, meaning that it can either take an object or not: 1) the snow is piling up on the side of the house > snow (topic) + piling (verb); 2) I'm piling books up in the corner of the room > piling (v) + books (obj). In this example, the verb would most often be a reflexive verb in most European languages. However, since our verbs in English don't change, we rarely ever think of any difference existing here at all (unless it's an active/ passive pair which also happens to fall into this dichotomy in Japanese). English sometimes does have pairs: something "falls" (by itself) vs. to "drop" something, or the pairs lay/lie and raise/rise. So if you've never noticed a difference, this is something you have to start training yourself to think about. Every time you see a motion, try to think of whether the action is happening on its own or whether it has an agent (subject) conducting the action. Learn not only the verb appropriate to the action, but also the particles that connect with the verb. If を appears before the verb, it's definitely transitive. So if you're encountering a verb for the first time that follows を, pay attention to the structure of the verb and what vowel appears in the penultimate syllable of the verb (like 纏まる vs 纏める). Make a mental note to connect that を with the め in this particular verb 纏める. Likewise, in sentences that use が, make a mental note to connect it with the ま, again specific to the verb 纏まる in this example. If you've worked with Japanese conjugation, you may have learned the "causative" before, which in a lot of cases can change an intransitive verb into a transitive verb. For example, 高まる means "(something-が) rises" which is intransitive, and 高める means "to raise (something-を)" which is transitive. The causative of 高まる is 高ま らせる which would be to cause something to rise, and therefore is now transitive. There are quite a few verbs in our list that are actually causative counterparts of another verb.
