There must be one somewhere, I just haven't been able to find it ._.

I'm over 1000 kanji now, and I often remember what primitive is in a kanji, but not exactly how to write it, so I think I need to revise them independently. And the book only has a list of primitives which aren't kanji in their own right.

I'll make my own if I can't find it, but certainly there must be one around somewhere.

By the way, I'm not interested in a file for anki, I was thinking a simple pdf/text document/webpage.

Thanks

Yeah, you know, I was thinking that would help a lot, too. I think there is a font that has them. It's used in the Movie Method. That might be a start...

You know what would be a good way to revise them? To go through the book and pick them out manually. Just looking for them and writing them down will help you remember them.

That was a common failure-mode for me, too, with recently-learned primitives. I don't think you should worry about, though.

If you don't know a primitive, kanji that contain that primitive will fail, making you practice writing them correctly, making you write the primitive that you don't know.

Thus, as long as you copy your failed characters correctly, you shouldn't need to review primitives separately.

My experience is that primitive-blank failures disappear with practice. I recently finished adding, and most of my errors now are keyword confusion, placement, and confusing similarly-written primitives. (Like writing "garment" without the third stroke since I recently learned "hairpin" (frame 1920) which lacks that stroke.)

If you still want to look at them separately, I'd second Yuka's advice, though. Indices I and II are your friends.
