I am doubtful that learning Japanese will make my life much better but I might as well give it another shot. If I can make it work and get along the JLPT path at least it is something I could take pride in, like those 3 university degrees on my wall I never used. Still nice to have.

It seems to me, you're doing the cha-cha-cha dance with ANKI & RTK.

Quote:釘がないので For want of a nail

　　釘がないので　蹄鉄が打てない
　　蹄鉄が打てないので　馬が走れない
　　馬が走れないので　騎士が乗れない
　　騎士が乗れないので　戦いが出来ない
　　戦いが出来ないので　国が滅びた
　　すべては蹄鉄の　釘がなかったせい　

因果関係のへんてこな連鎖を歌った歌です。子どもたちは、こういう話を聞かされて、すこしはお利口になったことでしょう。

For want of a nail ? Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes

　　For want of a nail the shoe was lost.
　　For want of a shoe the horse was lost.
　　For want of a horse the rider was lost.
　　For want of a rider the battle was lost.
　　For want of a battle the kingdom was lost.
　　And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.
