Would it be a good idea for Bunpro to add pictures to (some of) it's vocabulary?

For material objects, emotions, etc. I think such a (toggable) feature would be very good for retention

Hi!

I totally agree.

This would also be quite useful for some grammar, too. The あげる - γγ‚Œγ‚‹ - もらう trio come readily to mind, as do the ていく - てくる, ι ƒ - くらい and おきに - ごとに duos or some nuances of the particles へ, に and γ‚’.

Hopefully, a way could be devised to implement this!?

It should be opt-in. The computer I often use for bunpro can’t even load the forums fully, much less any pictures.

I strongly agree, for example just adding a screenshot of where you first encountered a word might do wonders for retention I think, by accessing it when you fail a review.

The possibility to add an image to our β€˜notes’ would already do the trick for me.

I think images would be super helpful. Some gifs could be fun too.

I agree with the opt in option as I could find it distracting with my neurospicy brain.

However for the あげる / γγ‚Œγ‚‹ / もらう configuration it would be good to have a mini visio style chart showing how they interact - Tonkini Andy did a really good chart in his lesson on this subject when covering it in his Genki series, it really made it click for me having a visual.
