Which characters?

This tool covers only the 46 basic hiragana (no dakuten/handakuten/youon) - use the Kana Matching Quiz for those.

Practice options

Defaults to 15 - enough to fill a page for one character without wasting paper on a mostly-blank sheet.

Not every character has a natural example word (notably を and ん) - those just skip the word row.

What will be generated

A quick summary of your current settings - not a mockup of the page design. The actual PDF has no colors: every trace box is a plain black square on white paper.
