Agreed. It still happens once in a while, but not nearly as much as when I first started and more due to carelessness than being genuinely unsure.
Got up early (6 am ) JUST to do those kanji really, now I’m going back to bed =P
Didn’t feel like putting on an alarm, but woke up! But NOT staying up! Too early D=
7 am over here. Gotta get those radicals guru’d. It’s actually nice to have a reason to wake up early cause I’m usually NOT (omg like really) a morning person.
Find a mnemonic for it! For every reading that needs an extra う, include a detail that will help you recall it.
Any example is welcome, because I tend to have these wrong often too.
… [drops to knees] … HOW!? How did I get that wrong! It’s my birth month and I still got it wrong! Wait… That isn’t even asking for a month! [faints]
And that’s why you shouldn’t skip a day of WaniKani!
For obvious, dumb, you weren’t even looking I use the override script. You have to be strict with yourself and only use it when it is truly a mistake because abuse can affect your learning… but in this situation it’s a lifesaver… like when I got ICHI - ONE wrong! HOW?!
wow, just wow
I hate losing the “nin or jin?” game. And I then get annoyed at the “you’ll know how to read this”. Not when there’s two possibilities!
にん is for occupation, じん is for personality.
It gets kinda fuzzy for some words (lookin at you 病人 and 老人) but I find it’s an easy mnemonic to make up stories for.
In that case, would it be accurate to say that にん is for something that’s subject to change, and じん is for something that’s intrinsic to the person (a 病人 can get better, but you can’t stop being a 老人)?
I’m gonna use this forever! Thanks!
You again!
I almost want to add “December” as a user synonym just as a meme. Yay for personal memes?
Guys I have to share my tiny momentary moment of glory and my family will just think I’m crazy if I try to explain why this is even a big deal.
It has been…
But after a month and a day of relearning 11 levels I finally made it to
and a (very brief!) victory!
Oh my god.
