Overview

The CJKI Japanese-English Dictionary (JED) covers about 110,000 entries of general vocabulary. It includes part-of-speech codes and readings. Optimized for the convenience of language learners, JED has just the right amount of detail: enough equivalents to provide a fairly deep understanding, yet short enough not to clutter up the screen or page.

JED can be paired with its sister edition, the CJKI English-Japanese Dictionary.
