I’ve looked into flash card systems on the computer, but it all comes down to myself discovering word lists, manually inserting them and using a program that isn’t as simple as WaniKani. I want to start learning grammar, but I feel like I have so many simple words and phrases that aren’t Kanji (lik…

I really like Torii and how you can e.g. learn the most common hiragana words and words not on WK, but in the end I dropped it for similar reasons: no export.

This is something I’ve been kind of struggling with as well. I know WK isn’t really a great vocabulary resource, but I have yet to find anything else to supplement it that works for me. I’ve had trouble with core Anki decks in the past since I run the risk of running into words with kanji I don’t kn…

Thanks for this thread, I actually kind of struggle with this myself and will check out the few resources you have linked!

What I do takes more time than most options, I guess, but it works for me because I’m not in a hurry to learn japanese. Whenever I read, I write down sentences that interest me in a notebook (maybe it showcases specific grammar points or vocabulary, or it contains an expression I want to learn…). T…
