Just in time actually :grinning:

Was super confused at the beach scene in FF VII REBIRTH when Aerith said “ひりひりでひゅうひゅうだね” during the beach scene
English translation in-game doesn’t really tell anything close to what she’s trying to convey

This has definitely plagued me for the entirety of my Japanese education, so to see that you guys have made a deck for it is a major relief

I didn’t even know that things like きっと and こっそり were onomatopoeia. Another great addition, thank you.

Hey, great idea.

Is this new deck fully available in the app?

I’m using the latest Android version (0.4.1) but the example sentences aren’t showing.

Is this the same for all words? There should be example sentences for that word.

There are some that do not have examples yet, but all of them should be there within 2 weeks max.

I have let the team know about じっと. Not sure what’s happening there :thinking:. Could you perhaps retry downloading the site data through the app settings and let me know if that helps out?

This part really attracted me to trying this deck, but when I checked the options, it was set to anime frequency for the order by default.

That doesn’t seem to be the same as what I’m reading here.

But, when I change and save it, it will revert back to anime frequency.

This is using the website, not the app.

Because the deck is in chapters, the order will not change apart from within those chapters themselves. So sorting the deck will really only affect about 10 or 20 words at most in each chapter.

Edit - Turns out I am wrong and sorting the deck breaks the chapters :grimacing:. Will update again with a fix.

Solution - Seems like changing it to anything other than default will break the chapter organization and give you something that only cares about frequency etc. If you set it back to default, the chapters will show back up properly with the original intended organization.

Thank you. However, like I mentioned, even saving my changes does not change my selection. It defaults back to anime frequency.

Thank you for looking into this :slight_smile:

I’ve passed this on to the dev guys. But just to check, have you tried going into your deck settings by actually opening up the deck page and trying to edit it from there? This could potentially be some kind of bug preventing the edit feature saving correctly when accessed from the home page/daily planner :thinking:.

I stumbled across this short not too long after this deck was released :rofl:

So, the information regarding the sound significance is in the chapter titels/short descriptions themselves only? (So in the breakdown of the deck into categories plus the chapter description.)

Will the descriptions themselves be expanded at some point?

BTW, a general feedback for all vocab decks:

There are just walls of meanings at times - example:

ちゃんと
diligently, seriously, earnestly, reliably, steadily, legitimately, perfectly, properly, exactly, orderly, punctually, regularly, sufficiently, satisfactorily, quickly

In other threads people have pointed out rightfully that they prefer to have all meanings, but would it be possible to break these down in a more readable way?

For example, from Jisho:

The bit of structure may make some difference when absorbing the different meanings of a word.

An example from the N5 deck where this might be more obvious:

And compare Jisho:

I’m not saying to replicate this, but even grouping it in categories of meaning on separate lines would be helpful.

May be the daily planner’s display is bugged, when I view from there it’s stuck saying anime, but if I view from the deck page, it says default. Unless these are actually different settings, the different labelling makes it a bit unclear.
