Reverse order (Kanji -> Keyword) flashcards? - foodcubes - 2010-09-24
As per discussed in the other thread (http://forum.koohii.com/showthread.php?pid=114714#pid114714), I think I would like to focus on recognizing rather than reading the Kanji. I'm at about 950 right now, and my progress has slowed to a snail's pace despite studying for a couple hours everyday. I really need to balance my time better between Pimsleur and RS, which is also going at a snail's pace because I am spending too much time on RTK. So my solution for right now is to shortcut RTK and go for recognition (Kanji->Keyword).
So my question, is there a good place similar to this site where I can get Kanji->Keyword flashcards?

Use anki. Just dl the rtk deck and flip it.

Thanks. Just downloaded Anki and RTK. Can you tell me how to flip the deck?

I would suggest selecting all facts, suspending all of them, then right click "generate cards" and select recognition.
This way you have 3000 unsuspended RTK recognition cards and 3000 suspended recall cards, in case you ever decide to practice recall.

Thanks for the help, but I'm not seeing how to do this. I can't right click "generate cards", and there's no option for recognition. All I see is "generate cards" -> "production. I tried, but it didn't seem to have any effect.
There is a response on their site, but it's also very vague (http://groups.google.com/group/ankisrs/browse_thread/thread/4315b76c51429377/500edf163d03b90a?lnk=gst&q=reverse+order+kanji#500edf163d03b90a).
Maybe it's a version issue. I'm running version 1.0.1 on PC.

Ok, I think I figured it out after an hour of trial and error.
After downloading the deck, go to:
settings -> deck properties -> add –> basic -> edit -> (select “back”) then hit “move up”. Then hit “close”.
Open search window (by clicking magnifying glass).
edit -> select all
actions -> change model
under new model field, select “basic”.
Now you will have the option to "change front to:" select "kanji". Repeat for "Change back to:" Keyword. Now you can practice Kanji->Keyword.

In the edit model window if you go into edit template (or whatever its called) there's an option for "foward" cards and "reverse" cards. Reverse is disabled by default cos it's normally not needed. What I would do is create a template for the "reverse" cards that goes "kanji" on the front and "keyword" on the back. Then enable the "reverse" cards (will take a few secs to generate them initially) then you can either disable the "foward" cards or just suspend them all. Up to you.
