Hi, I’m not sure if I read it completely right, but I assume the number in between parenthesis is the level of the item. If it is, ordinary (並) should be listed as 28, not 11. As I looked through the list I was thinking to myself “that’s a weird looking font for the kanji gold 金” haha.

Thanks all!

Please consider adding “us” as an alternative to 俺たち (I’ve been spending too much time lately focused on grammar topics, subjects, and objects, oh my!).

I was wondering something. The kanji lesson for 稼 teaches the onyomi (か), but there is currently no vocabulary on WK that uses the onyomi. The two vocabulary items that exist use the kunyomi. So I was just curious why the onyomi is taught with the kanji lesson.

I’m not one of those people that know how to research things properly, but there seems to be a couple of common (common-ish?) words using the onyomi so it isn’t wasteful to learn it. But my experience with WK is that kunyomi would be taught in cases such as these.
