Expert take: what JLPT N5 — 読解 really tests
N5 reading uses very short, simple texts — signs, schedules, short notes — written in basic grammar with furigana support in places. Questions ask for directly-stated information: a time, a price, what someone will do, so careful reading of a few sentences is all that is required.
Preparation tips
- Read each short text slowly and completely; at N5 the answer is stated, not implied.
- Practise reading schedules, menus, and notices, the exact formats N5 uses.
- Confirm basic question words (いつ, どこ, だれ, いくら) so you catch what is being asked.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Assuming a question is harder than it is and second-guessing a stated answer.
- Misreading a number, time, or price in a schedule-style text.
- Skipping the question word and answering the wrong point.
