• 6 May 2022New : Create a Review Deck from Japanese Text

    The Custom Review page now features a new mode called Create a Review Deck from Japanese Text.

    With this feature you may post raw text from Japanese video subtitles (or even Japanese stories or novels) and review all of the RTK kanji within that text using a one-off study deck.

    You can also use the "Shuffle cards" and "Kanji to Keyword" options in this mode. Please note the "Shuffle cards" option is now checked by default (this is meant to be convenient, assuming most people want to shuffle the kanji cards).

    I made sure the Repeat Review button works (from the Review Summary screen), so you don't have to paste the text again should you want to repeat the review. Keep in mind if you checked Shuffle cards, the kanji cards in that one-off study deck will be shuffled again when you repeat the review.

    When you paste text, you'll see the count of unique RTK kanji below the text area. For now, this feature filters out any non-RTK kanji, since those do not have keywords - and we need some kind of prompt on the flashcards. So keep in mind the count shown is the count of kanji present in the raw text, which are included in the RTK Volume 1 & 3 books (this is also affected by your selection of Old or New Edition in Account Settings). Many kanji used in placenames and family names for example are not part of RTK.

    If you have any related ideas or suggestions you can leave a comment on issue #259 on Github.

    You can also simply send feedback via the contact form.

    Thanks to long time user chamcham for this idea!
