ahh i see what you mean

sorry my brain didnt process pop up very well

Since the creation of this thread, I consider it a treasure to come across a grammar point that I can get a pile of yellow shake messages for.

(Though I sure didn’t find the right answer to this one. Tbh I don’t even think the messages are bad. I just really couldn’t think of a grammar structure that often has a negative nuance.)

this is a routine bunpro traffic stop, just a small bribe to the dev team and you can nudge that one up an SRS level

whenever I get a yellow or red message, I put it in the notes for the grammar point. 尤も is a killer for me, lol. I feel like I’ve collected them all, might be missing some.

Ah, I forgot to take a screenshot, but today I got a hint that was like “Can you try it with a different particle?” or somesuch, but… it was a red X message instead of a yellow warning one. So like… you want me to override my wrong answer? Or…?

Simple as that, started vocab on Bunpro instead of Anki, and noticed this.
EDIT : I put Shiru at first because i wasn’t thinking and quickly going through vocabs

Ok, I’ve had so many of these recently I’ve been thinking about making a thread about it. It’s so badly worded!

Oh, I’ve gotten a few of them, too!
Like… what tense hint? There’s nothing to do with past, present, future, etc. Am I misunderstanding what the word “tense” means in this context?

I think it’s just a hint to make you tense up :rage:

Sat there wondering what the heck else I learned that wasn’t some form of きる, until I finally gave up.
So it turns out the correct answer here is actually いいきらない, which is the same grammar point, just conjugated differently. If the hint hadn’t been there, I probably would have realized the “negative” in the top, and just corrected myself.

To their credit though, I submitted feedback and they’ve already gotten back to me and said they fixed it.

Oh, it made me tense up all right!

I am on these since half a year and they are so bloody useless shit. They make me either rage or wanting to find someone who invented this stuff and nail them with their ears to a tree, or just give up and move to a country with a less absurd language. Vatican city, Australia, Bavaria, Finnland, whatever.

Thanks, feeling better already. I am just learning this language out of spite at this point :confounded:

I get what you’re getting at… but ;_;

Is this hint incorrect? I have encountered several ‘check the tense’ hints.
When I ‘show answer’, one of the answers is exactly what was typed.
