RTK + Anki - addons? - How does it work? - nukec - 2014-11-13
Hi there.
I am using RTK for learning writing kanji, and Anki for reviews. I have 6th version of RTK1, thus I downloaded https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/2756278936 deck from here.
If I am not mistaken first 20 cards skips 一、二、三. Because I went through first 20 kanji, and it caught me because it shown 21, 22 and 23 in this deck (chant, sparkle, goods).
So anyway, once I go through this review, how can I repeat review(so I can do review multiple times than only once)?
Or this is not the proper method, you only review once per day, and increase number of kanji per day to study if you have more time, instead of multiple times review?
So Anki works, once it goes through deck of 20 cards, next time you run it it goes through second deck in this case from 23 to 43 frames from RTK?
PS: I've heard there is an addon for anki, where you go over 漢字 it shows furigana. That might be very useful if true?
ありがとう！

Hi. So you are saying that deck starts at #20 then #21, #22...? Sounds a little annoying, but I'd guess you won't need to review those too much. You can check to see if the cards are in the deck by clicking "browse" and then enter and you'll see a spreadsheet view of your cards. Maybe they are just suspended and you can unsuspend them...?
As far as reviews go, that is the purpose of anki is to schedule when to review the cards. However the default settings might need to be adjusted to work well for kanji and vocabulary. The best way to do this is to go into the deck options and change the learning steps from '1 10' to something like '1 4 15 60'. The numbers represent the learning steps in minutes, so instead of seeing a card 3 times like the default, you'll see them 5 times, with 1, 4, 15, and 60 minutes in between.
These are what anki calls learning steps it's only concerned with the cards on the first day you study them. The next day, anki will show the card to you again and if you pass it, the next intervals will be 3, 8, 20, 45... If you fail a card, it will go back to the beginning, almost like it is a new card, but it' will obey the learning steps in the "lapses" pane. I know probably sounds convoluted, but it's not that bad:
learning steps => brand new cards
lapse steps => cards that you failed
anything else => 2.5 * previous interval (rounded up)
Regarding furigana, solo kanji don't really have furigana - kanji that are part of a word do. In other words, the reading of the kanji changes depending on the word it is part of. So you wouldn't want to add furigana to your RTK cards. The add-on you are thinking of is probably Japanese Support and it has a function called "bulk add readings" that has the functionality you mentioned.

Nice answer! I am using reviewing the kanji by koohii. Do you maybe know how to enable kun-yomi reading on this screen:

Hi nukec
The ON readings shown in the flashcard list is for purpose of memorizing the characters.
Example words along with ON and KUN readings are currently available in the Labs page with the Free Review modes, by checking "Show Example On/Kun Readings". Note that only "high priority" words in JMDICT are used as example. So a KUN reading is not always shown. They are randomized as well so for a given character you will not always see the same example words on successive reviews.
The idea is to learn some readings if you have time after learning the characters. With the options page I will be adding soon to the site, I will likely add the same option to show ON/KUN examples to the SRS flashcards.
