Interesting! Did someone try to sneak in 障 here by any chance? :smiley:

Thank you!

I actually had these in my Anki set for adjectives for a long, long while until I found different synonyms. Nice!

Will have to watch out for this, since it’s close to my current level.

Super big thanks for the updates! :partying_face: :partying_face: :partying_face:

Feels odd watching this as I don’t use WK anymore. But boy is it a good feeling when I know the new Kanji they add.
