I have a few suggestions:

  1. can you blacklist “poisoned” for 有毒? I think being intrinsically poisonous is different from having been poisoned.

To be a pedant, A.D. stands for “anno domini”.

Thanks Jennyさま! ありがとうございます。

I rarely post, but I want to say that I love to check the most recent updates and look at all of the new example sentences for vocabulary that I have previously learned; however, I found a 変換ミス with the second sentence of 志. The sentence is written with the 行 kanji 「志豊かに行きていこうと決心しました。」 Shouldn’t it be written as 生きていこう？

In addition, I noticed a typo in the English translation of the first sentence of the word 妖しい. Instead of “a enchanting beauty,” “an enchanting beauty” would be correct.

Thank you as always for continuing to update and improve WaniKani Jenny! I am always looking for more content to study. I cannot wait for more kanji and vocabulary!
