Hello list! Is anyone alive here ? I have been working lately on a website which aims to help people reviewing the kanji, using James Heisig's keywords. The...
Very good job FaB. Nice and clean from what I see. Keep up the good work and I look forward to using the site. Jason ... From: faB To: RTK Sent: Monday, August...
Hello fab, The site has a very good potential as a good reviewer for RTK.. I like the space provided when reviewing so that u can write the kanji there.. It's...
Looks good. It's reminds me of this site: http://www.davidhallgren.se/nihon/kanjiHeisig.asp only more robust. P.S. How do you write the kanji in the space?...
Hi cute_athan, "I like the space provided when reviewing so that u can write the kanji there.." You can use a permanent ink pen and write the kanji on the...
Hi Scott, "P.S. How do you write the kanji in the space? That would be useful." You don't ;) "If you click the hint it still counts as missed but it could help...
Hi fab, I'm sorry. I wasn't referring to that kind of writing, though thanks for giving me the idea using permanent pen.. :D What I do is I write/trace the...
As I've been reviewing the 1st 1000 kanji, it keeps occuring to me that most of these kanji I don't really need to practice. At first I thought it was just the...
got this error while being tested on the kanji Warning: array_shift(): The argument should be an array in /home/faburisu/public_html/kanji/review.php on line...
Hi macj This happens after 20 min of inactivity on the reviewing section, your 'session' expires. You don't have to restart anything, all the flashcards you...
Hi Scott, I am at 450 kanjis so far and reviewing the primitives several times really help me nail them down. I guess at your level it might be different and I...
Hi Fabrice, I don't know if you got the mail I sent you but again hats off for the fantastic job you are doing with your website ;) It is really helpful for...
Hi tatoeba, thanks, I just checked and I did receive an email from you (in french right?), and I replied on 19/09, but your reply-to address was 'tatoeba AT...
I am sorry Fabrice I must have missed it. Can you send it again to my email with '2' in it? Thanks a lot and thanks again for making Heisig's Kanjis a little...
I've been in Japan about four years now. I bought RTK1 almost as soon as I got here and zipped through part one. In part 2 where he only gave the plots I did...
Hi Rizzo, Just to let you know.. You're not alone.. :) When I had the time, I was able to finish up to 700++ kanji in about 2-3 months.. But during the last...
I'll add my "me too". I bought RTK1 in August 2004. Over the course of 2 or 3 months I made it through section 1...then stalled out. I didn't touch RTK for at...
Wish I could help, the first stall for me was Chapter 3, at first I thought it was just too hard to make stories. I still do. There are times of the day I just...
Making primatives into people is one of the best tricks I've learned. When you did it with shrek and fingers I thought it was pretty silly but now that I've...
Thanks Fabrice for taking the time to write such a long and detailed explanation on the memorization process. You are really helping us a lot! tatoeba...
As I'm racing to try and get back up through the old Kanji from my previous attempts I'm finding the plots section the most tedious. Too often the "plot"...
Hmmm. I usually avoid trying to explain the Heisig method to Japanese since to many it seems so backwards. (And for them I'm sure it is). But last night my...
Hi rizzo something interesting here is that Heisig might have well used the happy primitive for "accomplished", and add "one", passing through the vertical...
I'll echo that thanks. I'm about to start reviewing the first 650 in order to move on with Book 1, and plan to incorporate your tips into the learning process....
Okay then, this sheep had ATTAINED/ACCOMPLISHED/REALIZED the peak of "Pocky" (tm) stick detection. You see, this sheep was raised on a diet of Pocky(tm)...
Hmmm actually my wife was not leading me so far astray after all. After a second glance I discovered 'happiness' as a Heisig keyword for kanji #1505 and in...
Take care that "spicy" (a chinese radical) + "one" to make a cross shape at the top of spicy, is 8 strokes (that is, HAPPINESS is 8 strokes). "sheep" + "soil",...
... It reminds me of a SNES game I used to play: Pocky & Rocky. There's even a Wikipedia page about it. (Is there anything left that's _not_ in Wikipedia? :)) ...
... Oops you're right. It seems that everytime I look at these kanji again I realize another mistake. Though it turns out that the Pocky my wife was is the...
