This paper analyses phonological errors in kanji reading tests. Errors involved the mora geminate, mora nasal and voiced consonants, as well as vowel shortening and vowel lengthening. In a listening comprehension test focussing on phonological length, a tendency was found, especially in initially accented words, to shorten long vowels in the last syllable. By contrast, vowel lengthening occurs especially in unaccented words. It also appears that palatalized sounds affect learners' perception of length contrasts.
