Hey all,
While we learn one or the other type of reading when we learn Kanji, does WK also almost always teach the other type of reading when teaching Vocab?
I suspect not necessarily given that there can anyway be multiple readings of each type, but I figured it would be worth asking the question anyway because the most common of each reading is probably useful given that the reading used is typically related to whether the Kanji is used in a pure-Kanji word or on its own/with hiragana.
Most of them at the very least.
I have in mind about 15 to 20 Kanji so far that havenât both reading in wk.
But I might be wrong.
Itâs so youâre exposed to both types of reading where theyâre commonly used in vocabulary. The theory is onâyomi readings will be reinforced through the kanji itself and any jukugo. Kunyoni need to be reinforced through vocabulary similarly in native words.
This more than annoyed me early on, but remember that the kanji alone or with any hiragana usually means that it will be the kunâyomi reading. Other than that, you will see the onâyomi readings when trying to decipher new vocab. It gets better with later levels too.
Yeah almost always is about right. For example, they teach ăă€ă for æ± and itâs only used in two vocab: æ±ă and æ±ă.
Iâd guess thatâs about right if not more, but I donât know the exact number either.
Hasnât been a problem for reading IME.
