Japanese listening and pronunciation - minimal pairs

#1
Hello everyone,

I'm sorry for create another thread. The other has a misleading name. I think this will be better.

I'm creating Anki decks with the purpose to train my ears to notice some details in the Japanese pronunciation. For this, I need pair of words with very similar sound, with only one phonetic difference.

Up to now I have this lists, but I need to improve them:

Pitch accent minimal pairs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?...sp=sharing

Long and double vowels minimal pairs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?...sp=sharing

Gemination minimal pairs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?...naWc#gid=0

Moraic nasal minimal pairs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?...tM3c#gid=0

Can someone, please, help me to improve this lists? I need to find more words with double consonants that sound alike.

The basic idea behind this deck is described here: http://fluent-forever.com/hungarian-stag...vocabulary

Thank you very much.

I can't access all the docs, but I remember having troubles mixing the pronounciation of 1杯 (one cup of) and いっぱい (a lot of, much).

I just changed the permission of those documents, now they are accessible.
