I finished a flashcard deck I have been working on for 427 days yesterday, with 1627 of the 2136 cards being mature, so that's something I did. Gonna keep grinding the deck down so I don't forget the material that easily, but it feels good to be able to say I did it. (without any cheese to boot) #anki

Ah, I was mixing up 憩 qì (have a rest) and 栖 qī (dwell, stay)!

They don’t look alike at all, but their pronunciation is close and their meaning is kind of close too.

I’ve added the hanzi to my card. I add the two characters that I mix up, and clicking on each of them reveal its pronunciation, meaning and words that contain it (only the one I already know and are already in Anki).

I’ve been doing this for some months now, and it works well! It’s one of the best additions I made to Anki recently (I mean, it suits my way of learning, I know it’s not really how Anki should work.)

Woohoo bonus pics I missed the first time around.

That definitely ain't pizza. At best, that's the ingredients of some pizza. What's going to happen? She eats it, and then poops a pizza???

So I'm checking out Anki decks and I land on a deck that suggests adding pictures to the flashcards.

It gives an example with "I eat pizza." Except that the picture is not one of someone eating **pizza**.

That is... unless... in that person's country they put pizza through a blender, and drop the result into a bowl.
