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 appears before the verb, it's definitely transitive. So if you're
encountering a verb for the first time that follows , pay attention to the structure of
the verb and what vowel appears in the penultimate syllable of the verb (like
vs ). Make a mental note to connect that with the in this particular verb
. Likewise, in sentences that use , make a mental note to connect it with the
, again specific to the verb 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, means "(something-) rises" which is intransitive, and
means "to raise (something-)" which is transitive. The causative of is
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.
