Vocab Coverage – New Grammar widget

Hey everyone! :wave:

We have added a new Vocab Coverage widget to Grammar Points. :tada:

Nestled between Synonyms and Examples, this section holds all the Vocab that appears in that Grammar Point’s sentences, and highlights which of those words are new to you.


:mag_right: What it shows

Each Grammar Point now has two lists:

  • New to You
    • The Vocab used in the Grammar Point’s sentences that are new to you.
  • Learned Items
    • The subset of Vocab that you have already covered.

:sparkles: Check New Items

Using the “Check New Items” button will open a “coverage check” – a condensed quiz to check and process your existing knowledge of the Vocab.

Each item in the quiz is a Vocab flashcard:

You can rate how well you know it:

And at the end of the quiz, you can see all the Vocab, your assigned levels and make any last minute changes:

And voila! You’ve speed-rated all the Vocab for that Grammar Point.

PS: The normal Review hotkeys work: A to Reveal and 1 - 4 for assigning a rating.


:thinking: Why we added it

Our primary goal was to make coming into Bunpro with existing knowledge as easy as possible, and allowing quick gap-filling wtithout having to go through the longer Learn + SRS Review process.

The Vocab Coverage widget also gives a clearer view of the Vocab load for each Grammar Point.

It helps in few other ways too, it allows:

  • Viewing of all of the Vocab used in one place
  • Better understanding which Vocab are actually new to you at that stage
  • The ability to learn the Vocab for sentences before they come up in Reviews, so you can focus on the Grammar

:world_map: Where to find it

You can find Vocab Coverage directly on Grammar Point pages, below the Synonyms and above the Examples!


:clapper: Final Notes

This is just another lil juicy nugget to help expedite you on your Japanese journey.

We hope it comes in handy!

As always, if you have any feedback or suggestions, we would love to hear it!

Cool feature! I had thought about making a deck for all the vocab covered in the grammar sentences so I’m glad this has been addressed!

This is a cool feature, but I have a bit of feedback.

I wasn’t doing Japanese to English translation before (I’ve been doing translation to Japanese, trying to remember the word from reading the sentence in Japanese as best I can); now since doing this on my three new grammar points today, I got multiple “translate the word to English” reviews in my queue and I really don’t like those kinds of questions, but I’m not sure how to take them out of the queue, and I am also unable to change them to something that fits my routine; it seems odd that the words in question which are given in examples for grammar points cannot be reviewed in whole sentences, since they are sourced from the example sentences?

Edit: I found out how to remove things from review; so that at least gets rid of the largest annoyance.

This is such a fun feature!!! I’m always trawling, looking for new vocab to learn especially since I finished all the Bunpro vocab decks, so this is the perfect fix!!! Thank you!!
