I’ve been passing every level with my first radicals and I was wondering how long I would be studying these specific ones before I move on.
To move on you must get your radicals to a guru status.
There are four apprentice stages:
first is four hours, second is eight, third is one day, and fourth is four days (I think…somewhere around that…it’s been a while )
Once they are gurued, you will get the kanji for the level unlocked. And once those are gurued, you will level up, as well as unlock any vocabulary lessons involving the kanji you learned.
So you don’t need to burn stuff to move on. But to answer your question, from start to finish it takes about 6 months to burn something.
And welcome to Wanikani!!
Thank you!!
No problem! I hope to see you around, and good luck with your studies
Just to add, on levels 1 and 2 apprentice level times are halved! But after you get them to guru they’ll goto the same intervals as all other items.
All the stages are listed in the FAQ
It’s 2 days. ^^ I don’t keep track of the rest of the levels, but thankfully @Ducklingscap kindly posted a link to the FAQ.
Edit: might as well post the numbers from the FAQ for people:
4h, 8h, 23h, 47h (guru), 1w, 2w (master), 1m (enlighten), 4m (burned)
