お? じき? Flashcard confusion!

I came across this flashcard in a vocab deck I’ve been using the other day and was thoroughly confused.

I was guessing that it was just a typo (there have been others), but on searching I found this page: https://www.tanos.co.uk/jlpt/skills/vocab/sentences/?vocabid=86282

Is there some grammar point here I’m missing? Should the card just be 直? What’s the relationship with お? :thinking:

That page is bizarre. In the example sentences, it lists things like おい (the exclamation), おもしろい, and おいで as being examples of this お vocabulary.

Basically it looks like nonsense to me and I wouldn’t trust it at all.

Think that’s because the example sentences are just the output of searching the entire example sentence database for お…

That would be a terrible way to make an example sentence list even with something more substantial than お.
