Thanks a lot. Would you mind uploading the .txt file again, but save it in utf8 encoding, not ANSI. With ANSI all I get is mojibake.
If you open it with something like notepad++ (open source) and choose shift-jis as encoding, it works. By the by, did you notice my (BROKEN LINK) post in the Hanzi thread?

Thank you, KanjiDevourer! Your tip or suggestion on how to view the "mojibake" file that was saved as ANSI (instead of UNICODE) is helpful. Smile And I gathered that bounaparte already have the Japanese text or knows where to find it online. Wink Sorry for my late response.

One of my favorite Chinese Classics San Zi Jing 三字经
The San Zi Jing was written in the 13th century to introduce children to the history of China, the great works of philosophy, and the basics of Confucian ethics. For the modern English speaker who is learning Chinese and/or the culture of China, it is a invaluable resource and a jumping off place to reach out in multiple directions to learn more about China.

- audio book read by Sun Xiaomei.

- translations of the San Zi Jing in English, French, German, and Italian. Includes literature mentioned in the San Zi Jing.

- included the characters for the San Zi Jing in both simplified and traditional form in unicode below the Flash file (scroll down) and on the text page. You can make your own flashcards and reading aids.

buonaparte,

I first heard about you on learn-any-language forums, now I see you here. I have been won over. I'm going to try LR for spanish and french. Thanks for your endless posting of resources. I'm a little afraid to try it with chinese. Maybe one day.

Jehovah's witnesses' site underwent a major uplift last August. It is much more learner friendly now.
It is not only about religion.
Everything in one place: good quality audio, transcript and translations in various languages.
Their Awake! magazine, published once a month, is readable even if you're not a JW or a religiously minded person. I am not by the way.

Have a look:

Thanks buonaparte. I didn't take a look before because I thought it was about religion, which I'm not interested in.
Now I see it's about a variety of stuff. Useful resource.

Is the J-Eallign broken for everyone else too? It looks really convenient but it's not displaying the Japanese portion in Japanese. It's more of a broken code


buonaparte's audio and text links - Inny Jan - 2012-10-17

1. You don't say what content you are referring to, so you are making it harder for people who actually might be able to help you.
2. How much do you know about text encodings? (Not much? Care to use google? For example: japanese text encodings)


buonaparte's audio and text links - nourished - 2012-10-17

http://i.imgur.com/T0cD0.png

This is what I see any time I try to access any content from the !J-Ealign directory that was posted inside of his original L-R post. These are all html documents. If there is anything else I should share please let me know, as this is not my area of expertise.


buonaparte's audio and text links - Inny Jan - 2012-10-17

Definitely looks like encoding issue.

You need to find in your browser the way to change "Character enchoding", for example in my Firefox it's under: Tools>Web Developer>Character Encoding. Then select one of:
Unicode
Japanese (EUC-JP)
Japanese (ISO-2022-JP)
Japanese (Shift_JIS)

One of those should work.


buonaparte's audio and text links - nourished - 2012-10-17

Thank you very much that resolved my issue Smile


buonaparte's audio and text links - usis35 - 2012-10-17

speaking of encoding issues, there is an interest resource,
government videos with subtitles.

http://nettv.gov-online.go.jp/index.html

I cannot read the subtitles with any of these:
Unicode
Japanese (EUC-JP)
Japanese (ISO-2022-JP)
Japanese (Shift_JIS)

usis35 Wrote:I cannot read the subtitles with any of these:

It should be shift-JIS, but it's a Flash issue, or in fact, an error by the Flash coders. See for instance http://dl.gov-online.go.jp/public_html/gov/nettv/gyousei/2012/20121005_mizen.subtitle in notepad++ or a similar text editor that supports multiple encodings --- it's just a special kind of text file in shift-JIS format.

Maybe if you could convince Adobe Flash player to use that encoding it'd work. To that end you could try to set your 'locale' to Japanese/shift-JIS if that's possible, but I didn't really investigate into it. I just googled and found http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/flex/1/internationalization_flex_short/internationalization_flex_short7.html . Or you could kindly ask the site admins to switch to Unicode Tongue

I'm really intrigued by this L-R method that he's posted but it's really overwhelming o_O

Downloaded the first two set of files in the first post, will figure out how to make them work tomorrow, I took a look at them before and working them seems indirect, if I linearly follow the first post, will things become clear?

undead_saif Wrote:If I linearly follow the first post, will things become clear?
As a total beginner to L-R, and with a fairly basic reading level as well, I tried a few of the files posted and one that I'd recommend to someone in a similar position is the set for

hukumusume - Classical stories of the world (kanji-kana-English)
20 fairy tales, retold, very simple, 1 hour, 58 minutes.
http://hukumusume.com/douwa/ (main site)
http://www.mediafire.com/?wgopqtxq2yeb832 (L-R files)

The stories themselves are very simple, and the L-R file very clearly has them structured as

Kanji sentence | Kana sentence | English sentence

As long as you've read and understood the posts/downloads explaining the ideas behind L-R, the set above will be really easy to follow along with as a starter.
