Tobira sentence spreadsheet or Anki deck?

#1
Does anyone have happen to have a spreadsheet with the example sentences from the grammar sections of Tobira that they are willing to share? Or perhaps an Anki deck? I'm looking to put together a deck with the sentences in Japanese on the front and the translation and grammar point on the back. I'll start from scratch if I have to but since I work full time, it would really help if I had at least a soft-copy of the sentences to start from. I know its useful to type them in from scratch but you need a lot of free time to do it.

Thanks in advance for your help. If you have somethig you want to send me one on one, I can pm you my e-mail address. Otherwise it can be put on a service like Mediafire if you don't mind a wider distribution.

Sorry I didn't get back to you quicker. No, I never did find a spreadsheet or Anki deck. If I were to make one today, I would probably OCR the pages and then manually edit them and place the contents in a spreadsheet. It would take time but it is faster than doing it from scratch. But since you brought up the topic again, maybe some one has a deck or spreadhseet that they can share.

I think this is one of the reasons that people keep recommending the same textbooks over and over. Even if another book is supposedly better its just not worth losing out on all of the pre-built stuff that you find with the popular ones. Just stick with Genki or Tae Kim. Beginner textbooks are such a small part of a journey to any kind of fluency that they don't need optimizing.

Thanks for the reply. I'm done with Genki, so I'm moving on to Tobira. I've bought the accompanying grammar book, so I think I'll use that instead.

There's a few chapters here:

And chapter 1 here:

Renshuu has a lot too, I assume they can be ripped out to a spreadsheet/deck.

After Genki you might want to look at the Grammar Dictionaries if you want a deck. I imagine Genki 1+2 will cover most of the Basic book, so you could rush through that one (pressing easy or suspending things you already know) and move on to the intermediate deck.

^ I just started the chapter 1 deck. It's nice, but there doesn't seem to be any other chapters.

Someone made a anki deck for tobira with all the vocabulary. ( 1000 notes ) . It seems I'll be doing that alongside core.

But, for an update, has anyone seen any other grammar decks?

Hi.I have been searching the web, looking for an anki deck of the grammar points of the Tobira book. Eventually, i have found what i was looking for.
http://www.cram.com/flashcards/grammar-from-1848634
Here, you can find a webpage with what i said. Besides, the example sentences have an english traslation. Now I am going to download the cards, and when i turn them into an anki deck, i will post it in the Shared decks of the official anki deck webpage.
Regarding my study method, i work my grammar, production-style, with a deck about the grammar points of the book Japanese for Everyone. Now, i am about to finish the book (Lesson 21 of 27), and mi intention is to keep studying with the same method but with the tobira grammar points. I would like to encourage everyone to study grammar that way, because in mi opinion is highly efective. Next, i suppose i will do the same but with the grammar kanzen books.
