[Userscript]: Anime Context Sentences

[polv]

Not to be nitpicky, but it’s about the original website.

Rewinding is easy, and audio is continuous, not chopped to segments.

• Sound files aren’t really continuous, and some middle thought-to-be-silent segments are missing.

I know it is impossible to audit every segments to check if vocabularies exist, or in the correct form, but there are some instances Youglish do better.

• 遭う
  • 遭う | 192 pronunciations of 遭う in Japanese
  • https://www.immersionkit.com/dictionary?keyword=遭う

This is from Homophone Dictionary, but Jisho only has 会う (listing 遭う as an alternative form).

(I have also just noticed the thing about <title> or og:title meta tags, but well, Jisho failed on that too.)

Another important case is, not all Japanese vocabularies have Kanji, nor Kana at all.

• OB
  • Ob | 211 pronunciations of Ob in Japanese
  • https://www.immersionkit.com/dictionary?keyword=ob
    • Actually, I know there exist some OB in your drama list.

Again, somehow, Youglish got this right.

Of course, there are cases that both fail. I can’t think of a good example right now, but the vocab are broken first with MeCab, I guess.

• ついて回る
  • ついて回る | 17 pronunciations of ついて回る in Japanese
  • https://www.immersionkit.com/dictionary?keyword=ついて回る

Somehow, Youglish wins again.

Also, not all vocabularies have Jisho entries, in particular, phrases. Some manual labor might be needed to fix this.

I also think of using community manual labor, or perhaps only mine, to fix this, even if partially.
