Hmmm… Well, its close enough for your typo system, but my Japanese teacher says that its not close enough for Japanese. Good thing this isn’t a Japanese learning tool or anything!
Here’s another one that’s “close enough”

Dead serious question, @Mods, could Wanikani just build a personal account option to turn off the typo checking? I’m happy to get dinged for making a typo if it means I won’t be validated for so many wrong guesses.
Is that how the algorithm works? Any four characters can be switched and it marks it as correct?
Because if “triangle” is accepted as “angle” then couldn’t “non-smoking” be accepted as “smoking” and vice versa?
Basically, yes. I think it’s not exactly four, but four is the smallest number (if the word gets very long, the number gets higher). Also for words that are 4 characters or less, there is no mercy…
Factory instead of victory
concluding instead of including
confusion instead of conclusion
touring instead of to ring
bead instead of head
Oh my bad. Then it was 3-letter words that come without built-in mercy
That sounds right. It didn’t accept WNI instead of WIN.
WaniKani just accepted “Impatience” for 辛抱, instead of “Patience”… And I think I ended up burning it… Anyways, that’s a candidate for the blacklist.
lol
May the Might be with you!
I wrote “polished rice” for 玄米 instead of “unpolished rice” and it was still accepted. Another for the blacklist~
I’m not sure how often people are mistaking this one for “to be separated” but since it’s similar enough to 割れる, I can add it to the block list.
Added “triangle” to the block list.
We mostly hear requests to expand our typo forgiveness options but this may be something we’d want to consider in the future.
Ah, we had all of these on the block list but didn’t have “nonsmoking.”
Added this to the block list.
