Flashcards with kanji and hiragana, plus meanings in both English and Bangla. Including the work and IT Japanese you need for real meetings with Japanese partners.
What makes it different
Meanings in English & Bangla
Every word shows kanji, hiragana, and its meaning in both languages, side by side.
Japanese for real work
Dedicated decks of IT and business words for meetings, estimates, and project updates with Japanese partners.
How words are really used
Short tips that textbooks skip, like why 検討します does not always mean yes.
Two flowers, one bridge
Shapla (শাপলা) is the national flower of Bangladesh. Sakura (桜) is the flower of Japan. ShaplaSakura brings them together as a bridge for Bangla and English speakers crossing into Japanese.
Building a bridge between Japan and Bangladesh is at the heart of my work. This app grew from the same idea.
Why I built it
Jamal Uddin Ahmed
I hold regular Zoom meetings with Japanese partners on IT software projects. I could not find an app that taught business Japanese with meanings in Bangla, so I built the one I needed.
