Confusion for Kanji in 投

Hello,
So I’ve been using the old mnemonics for certain kanji that I had learned pre-reset. However, for the kanji 投, the reading it teaches is “na” for the old one, and “tou” for the new one. When I typed in na, it didn’t accept it. I’m aware that it wants you to learn specific readings when learning the kanji, so I was just curious if that’s intentional.


just for reference

Did the answer box shake, or mark your answer incorrect? The shaking is intentional. They changed this kanji’s reading to on’yomi only.

It shook, as it should. I just didnt know in the radical overhaul they also changed the accepted readings. Was that in that overhaul?

They changed a bunch of kun lessons to on at that time, yes.

Does someone have a count of the total on vs. kun reviews on WK now? I remember it being something like 1700 / 300 / 2 between on’yomi / kun’yomi / nanori, but I guess that’s an outdated number by now.

1729 on’yomi, 316 kun’yomi and 3 nanori, 2048 kanji in total

Which ones use 名乗り?

Off the top of my head, 輔 is one (reading of すけ)

Ouch, no vocab? The Content Updates team might need to redirect their efforts…

I know the 50s are newer, but no vocab?!?

None of the “typically used in names only” kanji have vocab. It’s not just ones that use nanori. There are like 15-20 of them, IIRC.

輔, 菅 and 叔 are asking for 名乗(なの)り.
一,大,太,谷,向,長,和,陽,河,清,航,介,樹,彩,輔,胡,智,菅 and 叔 have a 名乗(なの)り reading defined on WK.
亮,乃,綾,輔,駿,諒,莉,茜,遼,瑛,哉,蒼,瑠,菅,漣,璃 and 梓 don’t have vocabulary on WK.
