All reviews today and decided to get some lessons done! So 13 new kanji lesson on WK, 10 new lesson on KW, and 1 lesson on Bunpro (ran out of time). Lesson/point on here was godan verbs (u-verb) and that finished lesson 3 of N5.
I hit every day this week, but I didnāt get credit for yesterday, so my streak is back to 1.
Wasnāt able to write thngs out today, but still hit 75%.
Also, hit level 20!
Good evening!
- At last, I zeroed my reviews both on WK & BP!
- I levelled up from level 18 to level 19.
- I must get used to this sugiru form for tabe.sugi.nai.de as I answered tabenaide only for donāt eat too much candy.
A quick update before I go on Christmas holiday, haha. Iām basically taking my Japanese studies to almost nothing and will even miss reviews on one day (ah! the horror! Iām sorry Iāll lose my day streak here).
Did my reviews today, one lesson here on Bunpro ć®(ćÆ) and pretty much nothing else. Just chilling and enjoying Christmas. (We celebrate Christmas on Christmas eve in Sweden, so Iāll be doing that tomorrow.)
Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays or a Wonderful Season to you all!
Done WK, KaniWani, KameSame and BP this morning.
Learning 3 new lessons today since thereās still a lot to review for each day.
Iām still struggling with conjugation, found out that learning to differentiate godan and ichidan verbs is very helpful to memorize them.
Good afternoon!
- Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you all!
- I finally zeroed my WK & BP review today.
- It feels good to squash some leeches again on WK.
- I think Iāll be reading about ć§ć again and find more example sentences about it. Itās one of my ghosts.
My first holiday away with studying using these apps. Managed to do all my reviews here and at WK the past few days sneaking them in whereever. Todayās plans derailed by bad weather so a lot of chillout time so even managed to add some lessons on WK.
Merry Xmas to all who celebrate it on the eve! I normally celebrate on the day but not doing a normal xmas since Iām away.
Finally BP has backed up.
Good evening and merry Xmas everyone.
Managed to clear up with good result today.
Is there any guideline when to add more lesson before it gets overwhelming?
Wow! 162 items! I havenāt seen an official guideline for that yet, but Iāve been using stats & ghosts total number, and guess from there.
But my pace is slow. I donāt always add lessons everyday on BP. I use same trick on WK. I limit certain number on my Apprentice items, I translate that Apprentice to 1 - 4 here on BP I guess? 5 - 6 as Guru? 7 - 8 = Master? 9 - 10 = Enlightened? 11 - 12 = Burned? CMIIW. + Ghost total. It doesnāt mean I donāt add my lessons because I see this chart though. More from my feeling I guess. If Iām confortable, I add lessons. Iād rather combat leeches (ghost here) instead of always adding lessons then get overwhelmed by reviews later and combat leeches on other SRS tools (insert here anki/kitsun/memrise, etc). But itās just my personal preference, because I could go wrong when Iām on review sessions for the first or second time just after learning lessons/grammar points. Other people could set it differently.
Good evening!
- I finally zeroed both WK & BP reviews!
- Even though I looked at the Appendixes of A Dict of Basic Japanese Grammar, I still got this wrong. I didnāt have any experience with negative ć»ćććć yet. I learned something.
- I havenāt had any experience to conjugate ć¦ćæćļ¼ć¤ćć
- I forgot again which one to use whether kureru or ageru.
Thank you for the tips.
Do you read any grammar books? I read Tae Kimās but I think itās hard since I donāt know many of the kanji in the book yet. I might have started too fast, Iād better slow down now. What is ghost reviews?
My head hurt when I first did. Had 100+ reviews at that time and it took me 1.5 hours to zeroed them. But it gets faster each day. Still had some verb conjugations wrong. I should study more on that area.
I used KW, and KameSame at the same time to reinforce kanji production which I think lacking in WK. I think WK is very slow right now due to that many repetition. I got myself into N4 already, maybe Iām just bored waiting for new reviews to come up.
Just zeroed BP. But still canāt remember the new lesson for N4 I had yesterday.
Thanks. I didnāt realize thereās ghost review in SRS
Good afternoon!
- I finally zeroed both WK & BP reviews!
- Oh, I hit 0 review too yesterday. I just didnāt post it here.
- Study Streak 26. Iām lucky when BP was down, it didnāt affect my streak.
- I wanted to focus/emphasize on my Japanese grammatical errors but āunfortunatelyā I didnāt make any grammatical errors today/yesterday.
- I levelled up from level 19 to level 20.
- I havenāt added lessons yet. I read Mami sensei translate from Japanese to English slowly. Still the first series 1-500 from 4500 though. I skipped about 5 - 7 sentences because I just didnāt know how to read some kanji yet, just like what Mami senseiās instruction, just read it quickly and translate to my language.
Back from my Christmas-away-from-computer-time, mostly just checking in. I just did all Bunpro reviews, about 13 reviews (I donāt remember exactly) which is about half of all lessons Iāve done (although one was a ghost). To do still: I have just below 250 reviews on WK and 70ish reviws on KW. My goal is to hit most of that by dayās end, but it depends. My brain turned to mush like an hour ago for no apparent reasons, so I might not get through all reviews.
Just level up to 19. Three times did the reviews but didnāt get recorded. I have tried using Wrap Up in the middle of the session but still didnāt get recorded.
Maybe some server issue again. They need to seriously handle this issue, itās very frustrating to have a lot of reviews and it didnāt get recorded.
The fourth time it went through. Not doing any new lesson yet. Iāll take your suggestion and eliminate ghost reviews first before adding more lessons.
Hey! Sorry, I little bit off-topic.
Iām in situation which I would call - āThe Review Hellā. I have 120+ reviews which is canāt finish for one day and next day I have same amount of reviews. Because of this there is also no way to study new grammar ( I feel i should done reviews first). May be I little bit broke logic than I study all N5 grammar in one day.
But question is how to limit number of reviews per day ( like may be 50 ? ) , get most hard for me first ( lowest streak ) ? or how your way of study looks like ?
I left BunPro for four months.
I donāt think there is a feature to get the hardest grammar points to easiest ones on BP.
I usually use the top left button, then click FINISH or WRAP UP after I answered 1 or 2 questions when I was busy.
I donāt always add lessons.
Oh, I felt I wanted to reset, but I just faced it, anyway, when I came back to BP and got overwhelmed by many reviews. This feeling could differ on each person I think. I donāt remember how many days did I take to zero all my reviews when I came back here.
Thank you!
Well, I guess I just get used to Anki where I have like 20 reviews per day and 5 new cards to study.
Here I just feel not right to learn new before making āallā reviews.
Good Evening!
- I wanted to review on BP but my review on BP is still zero. My WK review is still not zero though.
- I wanted to add lessons on BP but I still want to read what I have skipped. Today I read about ććć on A Dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar. I havenāt finished reading all about it though I think I had watched Misa Sensei explaining about this āif expressionā and ātokiā etc.
- I reached page 3 of Mami Suzuki Sensei no 1-500 sentences exercise already. I didnāt directly write my language translation to Apple Numbers though, because I did it mostly while commuting.
