Disclaimer: I googled to see if this is already a thing, and didn’t find anything, but I might have missed something, so I’m sorry if so!
Also for context, I study vocab using the input and translation settings.
I would like the option to add alternative definitions for items, perhaps pending approval (tho I know that would be a lot of work). For example, I often get “wasuremono” marked wrong because I write something like “forgotten item” or “forgotten article” instead of “lost article” or “something forgotten.” It’s great that I can redo it, but one thing I hate about input-based SRS is that I have to memorise exactly how the service wants me to write it, not just the meaning. It doesn’t help because sometimes I’m fighting with how I’ve memorised it for Wanikani already (which allows “Forgotten Item, Something Forgotten, Forgotten Thing, Lost Property”). Often Bunpro seems pretty good at picking up on things that are essentially the same, but not always. I’m not exactly sure what the mechanic behind that is, tho.
On the other hand, along those lines, bunpro sometimes accepts meanings that aren’t listed that I’m not sure should be counted, leading me to go back and undo my answer even though it was marked correct, because I don’t feel my answer is sufficiently close to any of the listed options. Has anyone else run into this?
