Suggestion: Add abbreviation for „something“

WaniKani Feedback

Hi

It would be nice to have Wanikani to accept some sort of abbreviation (like „sth“) as valid substitute for string „something“ which is included in many vocabolaries, like (all) transitive verbs like:
打つ = „to hit something, 回す to turn something, to spread Something, to stop something, to divide something etc, etc

This in the same way WK accept digits as synonyms for numeric strings (e,g,; for 一千 you can enter „1000“ instead of typing „one thousand“ )

I know that it is possible to define your own synonyms (and sometimes WK even accept with warning the answer with an partial „something“ string in it) but defining them for hundreds of vocabolaries is quite annoying.

Thank you for your attention

As far as I know for those kinds of items you can actually omit the “something” and WaniKani will still accept the answer as correct.

Whether that’s advisable to do in terms of your retention of transitiveness is a different story, but yeah you can just answer in “to hit”, “to burn” for those items all the same.
