FAQ
Is the Furigana Generator free?
Yes, it is completely free. No registration required and no usage limits.
Is my text saved anywhere?
No, your text is never sent to or stored on our servers. All processing, including morphological analysis, happens locally in your browser.
Why does the dictionary take time to load?
On first access, the morphological analysis dictionary (~20MB) needs to be downloaded. Subsequent visits load from browser cache much faster.
What output formats are supported?
Six formats are supported: ruby preview, HTML ruby tags, hiragana, katakana, romaji (Hepburn), and bracket notation.
What if proper noun readings are incorrect?
Proper nouns (personal names, place names, etc.) not in the dictionary may be converted with estimated readings. Please review the results and correct manually if needed.
