My understanding of WK is that its first aim is to teach the kanji. Why, then, are kanji which have not been introduced in the lessons, yet used in the context sentences, not accompanied by kana to show the readings so that the student has that easy help to learning those kanji? Yes, one can figure…

I think kanji that appears even though it hasn’t been introduced in the lessons is not teached in WaniKani. It probably should have furigana, though.

Don’t only the old sentences have kanji that haven’t been taught yet? People complained, so, they went back and added simpler sentences that don’t use kanji from later levels to each word (up to level 20 so far, but with plans to keep going). They left the old ones there, because it doesn’t hurt to…

Early introduction of kanji from later lessons would seem to me to be a useful familiarization tool. My habit is to record many new kanji, practice them, note the on- and kun- readings. The context Ss are my daily study to further my grammar and familiarity with how clauses are handled and to keep…

Thank you for your note. I have never spent any time with API… I will take a look.

Yes and yes. I would certainly pay a small add-on charge to have supplements to WK. Thank you.

[image] here34: nope. The first sentence is usually only or mostly known Kanji. But the second and third sentences usually have unknown Kanji. If you have examples, that would be good, because I think their stated intent was what I mentioned, and this way they’d be able to fix it. They did mo…

I’ve been monitoring the new vocabulary, and I noticed that you are right, the kanji in at least two of the sentences is familiar, with occasional exceptions. I’m pretty sure each of these sentences have kanji I have not seen. Although I suppose I may just not be remembering them. [Screenshot%20(4…
