For awhile I’ve wondered if there would be any kanji that had three examples using a reading other than the one they were teaching. (I very well could have missed one before this. It’s just the first one to pop out to me since in this case I know all three of those words already).
So, are there any example vocabulary that stood out to you so far? Obviously some of the example sentences are patently ridiculous and/or hilarious, but has the vocabulary itself ever caught your attention?
It’s always annoying when this happens because vocabulary helps retain the reading but if all the vocabulary you learn uses a different reading it makes it even harder to remember the other one.
in those cases stick to the mnemonics until it becomes natural.
Well there’s a lot of counters that don’t just go by the normal counting system. Kun’yomi counters for the first ten days and ten things as well as the exceptions in pronunciation like 一回(いっかい - changed いち).
I guess 台 is just one of the first counters you get exposed to so it’s covering many examples anyway despite it being pretty consistent. I’m not completely sure, but that’s my guess.
