Maybe its too late I should have posted this in the "group study" page and ask people to post errors they find. Many heads are better than one, lol.nickoakden Wrote:I haven't posted in ages, and am doing so now just to thank you. So simple, so incredibly useful. I'll go through every entry.While you're at it, you might want to check the sentences against the source material. There are numerous typos and errors that I saw during a short scan of one of the pages. I'm not sure if they're inherited from the spreadsheets or were introduced during the webpage creation process.
Quote:Other than that, the pages look nice! Just don't throw away your dictionaries yet...That would be a bit silly I think. Put together page to make reviewing after I read through the dictionaries easier. The dictionaries are amazing. The page is not there to replace them but to um... supplement? Make easier?
Quote:にとって/より => によって/よりThat is fixed up but I've having internet problems and aren't able to upload the changes to the host website. Very frustrating. A few other errors noticed when starting to check over Basic page have been fixed.
That still has to be uploaded to the host website. Try at the moment and it will probably not work and you wont be able to see pages (404 page). That happened earlier and for a while some of the pages you could not view them. Very frustrating. So later when internet is working better I will upload changes.

If I was the author I'd be pretty annoyed to have all my sentences on a website. Having said that, the other meat of the text (the grammar explanations) aren't there so it's not as bad. Sort of a similar situation with RTK and this website.

I think that, given that lists of Japanese grammar points and example sentences can be found all over the web, this might be ok, since it only reproduces information that can already be found elsewhere, and not the detailed explanations etc from the books. However, I am certainly not a legal expert.yudantaiteki Wrote:Are these dictionaries still in print?

yudantaiteki Wrote:Are these dictionaries still in print? Reproducing basically the entire text online seems a bit shady.I second this sentiment. The listing seems pretty comprehensive, and goes beyond fair use. I think the books are still in print, but even if they're not, copyright laws still apply.
