Direct answer
Can AI write a quiz in Japanese from a PDF?
Yes. Upload the PDF, notes or deck, set the output language to Japanese, and choose question types and difficulty. Scholarly writes the questions, answer options and explanations in Japanese, and each explanation points to the passage it came from.
- What goes in: PDFs, notes, slide decks, pasted text and other files in your library, including scanned pages.
- What comes out: Multiple choice, true/false, short-answer and fill-in-the-blank questions with explanations, plus full-length practice tests on paid plans.
- How Japanese is handled: Questions, options and explanations are written in Japanese, whatever language the source is in. Narration uses a Japanese voice. The speech engine is told the language explicitly instead of guessing it from the text.
- What each plan gets: Free can generate quizzes and answer 5 lifetime practice questions. Paid plans unlock unlimited practice, longer sources and full-length practice tests.

Language details
How Scholarly handles Japanese
What changes when the output language is Japanese, taken from how the speech and rendering pipeline actually works.
Voice
Narration uses a Japanese voice. The speech engine is told the language explicitly instead of guessing it from the text.
Script and layout
Kanji, kana and English terms render in a Japanese font on every scene, and captions and the transcript are in Japanese.
Variants in the picker
The picker has one Japanese entry, and Japanese is also one of Scholarly's two interface languages.
Check before you share
Check the readings of personal names, company names and uncommon kanji in the first scenes; add a reading in the instructions if one is misread.
Where it is used
Who makes Japanese material like this
Training for teams in Japan

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can my source be in English and the output in Japanese?
Yes. The source and the output do not have to share a language. Upload an English PDF, deck or recording, set the output language to Japanese in the creation panel, and the script, text and narration are written in Japanese. Leave the setting on Auto and Scholarly follows the language of the source instead.
Can I turn an English document into Japanese material?
Yes. Pick Japanese as the output language and the lecture, episode, cards or quiz are written in Japanese from the English source. The reverse works too: a Japanese document can become English material.
Is the Japanese quiz generator free?
You can start free: Free accounts generate quizzes and answer 5 lifetime practice questions in Japanese. Paid plans unlock unlimited practice, longer sources and full-length practice tests.
Which question types can I get in Japanese?
Multiple choice, true/false and short answer, plus fill-in-the-blank questions in study and exam modes. All of them, including the explanations, are written in Japanese.
Is Scholarly's interface available in Japanese?
Yes. Scholarly's interface is available in Japanese as well as English, and what you create can be in Japanese whichever interface language you use. Set Japanese as your default output language in Settings, or pick it per creation.
