Your worst typos WaniKani has accepted

@JenK This should probably be blacklisted. Same level too.

P.S. I just found out that the same algorithm to allow typos is used on the WK search function. I looked up “attendance” and “absence” came up as well. So…that’s why I always get a bunch of words/kanji that are not what I’m looking for in the search bar :sweat_smile:
Edit: it may just be that “attendance” is part of “nonattendance”. :thinking: Further testing is needed

This wasn’t accepted, but I was just reviewing 后 and I knew it meant “empress,” but sometimes I get excited and start typing without considering if it’s asking for the meaning or reading, and so I typed out “kou” (it was asking for the meaning), and my brain recognized that something was off, so it filled in the blank with, "Oh, she must be wanting to type “KOUICHI.”

I mean, close enough, right? I feel like Koichi should be an accepted answer there.

Answers can be blacklisted too

Preservation and conservation are synonyms, IIRC, so them both being accepted would make sense.

Possibly the hidden whitelist as mentioned earlier?

Nope, plain old typo allowance

I feel like I shouldn’t have gotten his one? I made sure to get the reading wrong so it could go back into my queue but I was surprised it went through.

I’ve been awake 5 minutes. The sun hasn’t risen yet irl. I knew what I wanted to type. My fingers rebelled.
