Application Description

[ttpp] is a quiz app designed to test your knowledge of the traditional Japanese "Iroha Uta" phrase structure. The app presents the first half of a line from the Iroha song and challenges you to select the correct second half from three given options. Each phrase pair follows the classic Tokyo-style Iroha Karuta format, rooted in the historical "Iroha" poem — a poetic arrangement using all 47 hiragana characters (excluding "ん") and sometimes expanded to include the 48th character in regional variations.

The Iroha Karuta itself originated in Kyoto during the mid-Edo period and gradually spread across major cities like Osaka, Nagoya, and Edo. It uses the "Iroha" sequence as the starting character for each phrase, forming a proverb or poetic expression that often carries deeper cultural or moral meaning. This app focuses specifically on the Tokyo-style renditions of these phrases.

■ How to Use
You'll be shown the first half of an Iroha phrase. Choose the correct second half from the three multiple-choice answers. After each selection, the app displays whether your answer was correct or incorrect, along with a detailed explanation of the full phrase and its meaning, helping you learn as you play.
