掲示板 Forums - (In progress) Kanji readings update

(This update is in progress)

I am happy to announce that I was able to procure a copy of the kanji data from https://kanji.jitenon.jp/ that I can integrate into renshuu! In addition to Japanese definitions and other markers (such as kokuji), there are a huge number of kanji reading updates taking place.

99% of these updates are of the following types:
1. Addition or removal of rare readings on school-level kanji
2. Addition or removal of readings on non-school kanji (for kanji not taught in school, there is no "rare" or "common" readings)

The majority of that last 1% is for school level kanji where a rare kanji is taught at the high school level, and the markings have been updated.


For most users, this will not affect them. However, if you have the setting turned on for studying rare readings, or you study non-school kanji (kanji kentei level 1 or beyond), you will most likely see changes in the readings. This includes some rare kanji that have, for example, kunyomi readings where previously there were none.


This is one of those changes that once done, I will most likely never need to update the readings again for the lifetime of renshuu, but it can cause some friction in the meantime. I do apologize for that.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.


Current status: updates completed on non-kanji kentei kanji, as well as kanji kentei levels 1, 2, pre-1, and pre-2.

Whatever you did erased all the kunyomi readings, and they cannot be marked as known. All my kunyomi are at 0 and are grayed out. If I try to mark them as known, they just gray out again, and act as unknown. Working on pre-1 now.

@じゅうり - did you change your settings between when posting that message and now? I checked, but they all came up as white for me.

As to the rad schedule, I'd be happy to look into that.

Gotcha, thanks a lot. It's fixed on my end

I got the notification about this saying I had some Kanji I was studying affected, but I'm not sure what Kanji it is. Is there a way I can see what Kanji reading or rare Kanji it was that made me get the notification for this?
