Incorrect audio for 周囲

Did they fix that?

They usually mass fix errors every (week? I forgot the interval of time), so probably not yet.

It’s still the same.

Always good to make it visible on the forums - but anecdotally, I’ve had success with emailing WK support in the past.

Turn around time for a response from them is usually 1-3 days.

You should email them and link to this thread. They generally respond quickly by email.

We’re going to be replacing all of the audio soon. This won’t be fixed until that change goes through.

Even the one for “WaniKani”? Is that Koichi’s voice?

It is his voice. (I had him record it as a sort of easter egg when we added 51-60.)

I think the new audio will replace that one too, but there might be a way to add it back in later with some other plans we have. I can’t guarantee it (or really talk about the other plans) but I’ll keep it in mind. :+1:

I will start a GoFundMe project for WaniKani to hire Hard Gay to record all the せい vocabs.

I’m assuming this will also replace the wrong audio for 禁煙, which sounds exactly the same as 祈念?

Yes, every single audio file is being replaced.

Any updated timeline on that?

Not that I’m aware of. The new audio files were just finalized, so we’re close, but there are some backend/frontend things the devs need to finish before the audio can go live for everyone. And I don’t have an ETA on that.

If you buy three more lifetime subscriptions I’m sure they’ll release it sooner.

I’ve only got one lifetime, though.
