Does anyone have a copy of 10k WK Breakdown they can link to?

That link asks for encryption key from me as well…

Is there something wrong with this link or am I missing something?

Two separate packages.

I’m an idiot… I see what you’re saying now.

Found this on the forums!

Any success?

By the way, I have this one in my Dropbox
10k WK Breakdown__7 - お負け Bonus.apkg

I do have the whole “10k WK Breakdown” in my MEGAsync Downloads, but it would be suicidal to upload it.

Here you go -

whispers What is the 10k WK breakdown?

I think it is the unofficial anki deck for wanikani? Idk, might not be right on that one.

This makes sense, I guess thats what the WK part is for. =/
I kept looking at it like…ten…thousand…weeks… this sounds horrible.
Thanks!

Core 10K vocabularies (from iKnow.jp, I think), broken down by WaniKani kanji.

So, there is Lv 1-60, and then Lv 61.1 - Kana; Lv 62.2 - the remaining vocab.

See the threads => So Much Vocab! and Some Supplemental Material

It was done in Anki, though…

Surprised the owner of WK is allowing this since it’s technically doing the same thing as the site only offline without any subscription required…

It’s just a deck for vocabulary sorted by WK kanji level. Nothing wrong with that.
WK doesn’t own copyright on words, the concept of levels or the SRS system.

A deck that mimics the look and feel of the site…

Straight out of Anki…it’s a straight clone of the site layout.

EDIT: Just for confirmation. I showed that screenshot to some people who use WK and they thought it actually was WK. So yea, I guess in the end it’s up to the creator but IMO that deck should be considered a siterip and piracy.

It treads a fine line, I remember one guy here who didn’t want to pay but wanted to “borrow” someone elses API key for “reasons.” Even though it was obvious.

On the other hand though, this is really helpful for someone like me who doesn’t want to go and have to manually suspend every single WK vocab in the 10K deck.

Just to be clear, I have passed my decks by Koichi for approval prior to sharing. If at any point he asks me to pull them down I will remove the links. In the end these were meant as a supplement to WaniKani for content they do not currently provide, though there is some overlap in vocabulary as well as Kanji they have updated later.

I didn’t know anyone here even actually made it. I got the link from Discord, google’d it, found a few posts here but no one actually claiming it. If he’s cool with it that’s great.

That said, the vocab portion of the deck seems to be assuming you know way more kanji just starting. It had sentences I could barely understand using advanced Kanji. In the first ten I was unable to read any of the vocab sentences due to the Kanji being used which doesn’t seem to have been pulled from here.

I agree. Even WaniKani itself has had feedback on their sentences being too advanced, though they are working on fixing that. Personally I use the sentences as an opportunity for pronunciation and reading practice. I don’t try to perfectly understand it before moving on. Given time, it has proven to be a good practice for making sense of the context of the given word and its vocal placement in a sentence.

A very big part of WK is the radicals and the mnemonics it uses to help you memorise kanji. The 10K deck doesn’t do that.

If you want to nitpick, the Anki decks are more ripping off iKnow :wink: That’s where the sentences and audio comes from. I think the content used to be freely available under a creative commons license or something though, so people are free to make decks from it.

But yeah I agree the sentences had too many kanji I didn’t know at first. You can set Anki up to have mouseover furigana though.

Neato…

Speaking of ripoffs…

Seems like iKnow is a ripoff of Memrise…
