Learn Japanese with Anki

[resolve]

As of today, AVG has started reporting that Anki has a virus. This is an error in AVG which has caused a number of programs written in python to be reported as having a virus when they don't.

You can read about the problem here: link

Since AVG won't let you run a program with a virus, you will need to either temporarily disable AVG or wait for the next AVG update to come.

When I practise online my password show on addres bar . Is there any possible that you can hide it?

[resolve]

Yufina:

The simple HTML version is designed for cell phone that don't support flash or posting, so using the password in the address bar is the only way to make it work. I am working on a new version that is specifically designed for use in a normal web browser, and it will support shortcut keys, caching of questions, etc. It'll probably take a few more weeks though.

In the mean time, I've added a link which'll open in a new window without a location bar.

Cheers,

Damien

New feature request:

show kanji which is in your deck

[resolve]

I haven't had much time to work on Anki this week, but I've put together a point release which should address some of the more glaring problems (particularly on OSX):

Changelog:

MacOSX:
- move to qt 4.3 and a snapshot of pyqt (fixes some bugs)
- switching between jp/en shouldn't insert a space in the edit deck dialog
anymore
- fix kakasi (automatic hiragana generation should work again)
- dialogs default to the proper button now
- misc layout tweaks

General:
- add 'kanji occurrences report'
- add more graphs
- highlight current card in edit dialog
- add 'don't generate reverse entries' switch
- change default matplotlib font
- make foo in '(foo) bar' is the question show up
- add beginnings of user customization file (~/.anki.py)
- updating pending# every minute
- fix problem with doublewidth ~
- append cards when importing, don't shuffle
- tweak initial intervals
- 1 hours -> 1 hour

Please let me know how you go.

Hi

If I add new card it add furigana wrong side like this:

Question:Answer

靴 [TAB] (くつ) shoes

But Answer:Question is right

shoes [TAB] 靴 (くつ)

Is there any possible that I can choose with side it goes?

And sorry my bad english.

[resolve]

I don't understand the question. If you add two cards, the cards are:

kanji : (kana) english
english : kanji (kana)

You're saying you want the kana on the question side?

Yes.

Like this:

kanji (kana) : english
english : kanji (kana)

I don't think that's a good idea, because if you decide you want to learn the kanji in the future, you need to edit a lot of cards. But, you can do it. Create a file in that format and use Anki's "Deck -> Import" menu. There's no support for hiragana in the questions using Anki's native "Add card" dialog at the moment.

0.2.8 is out!

What's new:

- mnemosyne import support
- improved text import that allows you to choose whether to randomize, and supports kanji+kana
- a new cumulative due graph
- a new sync protocol which allows newlines
- newlines and rich text are now allowed when editing cards
- move the configuration file and add support for 'plugins' to alter the way anki behaves
- add a lock file to prevent multiple loads
- base graphs on the start of a day, not current time (prevents them being split in half during the day)
- remove timeout when syncing (fixes osx bug)
- fix 3+4 sample deck (sometimes the furigana was displayed in the question)
- miscellaneous fixes

Resolve help me out !!!!!!

When i first isnstalled anki it all work ok, but hte other day after i close it and open again it give me this message :

"An Anki lock file exists, which indicates that
another copy of Anki is running. If Anki or your
computer crashed last time, you can ignore this.

Would you like to ignore the lock file and start
Anki anyway?"'

I really like kanji report feature. But the box would be little biger (like 5 row of kanji). Is there any possible that kanji report kanjis can sort of grades or JLPT? And Missing kanji can sort JLPT instead of grades?


This is really good program =) I use Anki every day.


EDIT: Ou kanji report shows that kanji first where is most words ^^

[resolve]

scentless: It looks like Anki is getting confused by one of the cards in your deck. If you email me your deck, I'll check it out for you.

Yufina: maybe one day! I have a big TODO list

For the rest of you: there's a new web interface which needs trying out, as it's only a few days old. Feedback welcome!

WOW

But when I try to sync my deck I got "unknown error: Empty response from server"

EDIT: Now it works =)

EDIT2: And now it is much faster and better than befor ^^. I really like it.

[Yufina]

Is there anyway that I can check which card I missing, because I have odd numbers off cards :S
