Not really a typo, but shouldn’t this be wrong?

One of those “I’m too lazy to correct my typos” moments…

I forgot to take a screenshot, but my finger slipped so I put “to like” as a meaning for 生きる and was surprised that it was accepted. I know technically it’s only a one letter difference, but maybe a blocklist candidate?

Thanks for letting us know. Don’t want people learning “to like” for this one. Got it blocked!

I was trying to type “late sleeper” but my typo looks closer to the real answer but is wrong which is good because I was trying to type the wrong answer, but, what , ??? :upside_down_face:

Was watching a twitch stream on another monitor while typing. Correct answer is ‘Go Board’

Well, I guess instead of 人込み we’ve got カラス込み

Terrible spelling aside, that’s just a completely different word.

…ok so I checked and found out this word can actually also be “temporarily”, but that definition is not on the shown list of definitons on WaniKani.

Wanikani has allowlists which accepts answers as correct because it is technically correct, but not the meaning that they wanted you to learn.

Yeah, I was aware of that. It just took me by surprise since I didn’t know that meaning.

I do wonder why there isn’t something like a “tertiary meanings” section that’s like a dropdown or something, so you can view other possible definitions while being clear they’re not the main thing being taught.

Frop.

The worst thing is that I burned it with this one… (I know the other meanings, though, just couldn’t remember them in English :sweat_smile: )

Sounding this out in my head made me chuckle. Got into a groove and hit the arrow without looking

This should probably be wrong though
