This is a python script that helps myself practicing Japanese verb conjugation.
Japanese verbs can represent different states (tense, voice, and politeness), they are the essential part of a sentence.
However, there are too many verbs, and different conjugation forms have different conjugation rules. Memorizing Japanese verbs are regard as the most challenging part for the beginners.
This script may also helpful for other Japanese beginners (especially Chinese) to practice Japanese verb conjugation.
Note: All conjugations are based on 基本形 (or 字典形, Dictionary-form). This script is wrote on Linux system base on Python 2.7.
