Feedback - General

I agree with that. Placing the bar on top of the screen as in WK and KW would be nicer and less distracting.

Thank you guys :+1: for developing this awesome grammar-drill tool! I found 文プロ through Wanikani community discussions and felt in love! I really appreciated the first free month and, with your fair price, a lifetime subscription was a very easy decision for me.

I have two points for you:

First, I’d appreciate an option in a cram session to be able to select only specific grammar topics to review (not only studied grammar etc.).

Second, you guys really need better promo FB, Medium… (e.g. like the author of the Inkdrop app) or something like that. Without Wanikani community, I doubt I’d found you. :thinking:

Anyway, keep up a great work! I really look forward to new Paths as well.

@Pirastrino Wow! Thank you so much for your kind words and for becoming a lifetime member! Thank you also for your suggestions. Adding the ability to study specific grammar points is something that we would like to not only get implemented in Cram, but sitewide. We agree that having more presence on social media would help spread the word. However, we are still a small team and the time spent maintaining multiple social networks at our current size might better be suited to expanding content and polishing the site. Once we have more content pushed and we have ironed out as many kinks as we can, we will pursue more ways to promote Bunpro. Cheers!

Word of mouth is something we can all do for them in the mean time :slight_smile: It’s free to spread the word, and now that we have levels, we can brag about how much XP we have :wink:

@conan Thank you so much! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: We really appreciate it. Cc @Andulien By the way, your Bunpro level will now be displayed on the forums. You just need to log out of the forums and back in again. Cheers!

https://www.bunpro.jp/grammar_points/79 about たり〜たりする

Report: Two example sentences don’t have audio. I’m not sure if I should hit Report Error on this page, because of the unavailability of audio, instead of grammar error in the sentence, besides the latter sentence doesn’t provide me “Report Error” link anyway, so I just post it here.

I tried it on both Safari browser and Opera browser on Mac.

Weird, I looked at them and for me the “Report Error” button showed. I reported that through the report error button for you :wink:

For 万が一 https://bunpro.jp/grammar_points/513,

One of the readings is about 万一 which is slightly different. But there’s no indication about the difference. I recommend adding http://www.e-japanese.jp/?p=662 as a resource.

But also, in general, I don’t really like when the resources mix grammar points. Usually it because the forms are related to each other and are just slightly different but it makes it more confusing when I take the lesson test and end up putting the wrong one in because I didn’t realize it was different grammar point all together.

And by that I mean instances where the resource lists both 万が一 and 万一 without distinction. Not when the resource is explicitly about the differences between two grammars like つまり and 要するに. Those are fine and I really appreciate them.

It’s enough of a problem that I’ve noticed it but right now I can’t give any more examples. Though if I encounter more I’ll mention them.

I think I know what happened. “Report Error” button didn’t show for me because I accessed it from Study.

This happened again to me. Different Grammar Point.

No “Report Error” button. But if I access this grammar point from Grammar link on the top menu, I found the “Report Error” button and I had already reported it to them.


I found this from this forum search, before I posted this post.

N4 Audio - All N4 example sentences and review questions have now been updated to include audio.

I think I’ll just add it here, so that I won’t double post.

I was from てあげる lesson page, when I clicked Japanese Ammo, it showed This video is unavailable. Is it only happening to me? Did Misa Sensei set her video private or deleted her video?

I approve of this

Also thanks for putting the theme name as a class on the body

@nanda Thank you for all of your feedback! We are not sure what happened to Misa Sensei’s video on てあげる. For the time being, we have replaced that link with one from Wasabi. Thank you for your patience. Cheers!

Tagging on to that, a lot of “The Japanese Page” links are broken. They may have done a update on their site or something.

@Pushindawood What is the priority for adding additional N2 sentences compared to other features on the site? When I encounter grammar points while reading I try to add them on Bunpro, but I’m a bit reluctant to do that for the N2 grammar points since they only have a few sentences.

@lopicake Thank you for letting us know! We will look into it and get those links fixed. Cheers!

@seanblue Now that we have improved the search, updated the UX, added leveling and XP, and implemented Paths, we will be able to place more focus on fleshing out the content (adding additional sentences to N2, adding textbooks to Paths, and finally making some N1 material available on the site). Thank you for your patience. Cheers!

Maybe this is a setting I haven’t found, but I wondered if it was possible to show “Unread (X)” and “New (X)” in the menu along with “Categories”, “Latest” and “Top”? I find it a bit cumbersome to click the menu/three-lines to find those two headings. They are the ones I check every time I come to the community. Thanks! :smiley:

She mentioned that she’s redoing some of her old videos, so she’s taking the older ones down. No ETA on them, but she said soon.

@mrnoone Can you add とすると to the とすれば・としたら grammar point, assuming that makes sense?
