Hello, I'm working my way through RTK and have a question concerning a couple of Heisig's definitions. 町 (Heisig RTK #92) is defined as "village". Later, 村...
machi is certainly bigger than mura, but the main point of heisig, rather than the accuracy of the meanings is the ability to record a kanji in each word ---...
... I wouldn't call it a mistake so much as a difference in definitions. In Japanese administrative nomenclature, $Bmt(I:(B is almost always translated as...
Mex - Thanks for looking in the Kodansha dictionary. So far I haven't been checking systematically all of Heisig's definitions, rather just those that appeared...
hey Karl -- sure you'll make it, but to have a feeling that you know them all (or 90% say), better use some flash-card manager, if you're not doing so already...
In this case, if town and village are not suitable why not take the leap and remember them as "machi" and "mura" and forgo the translation into into English....
Stuart - I'm not convinced about that as an initial strategy - in fact I think it contrary to Heisig's whole approach. Learning only a connection between a...
Takatsu5 - I was unable to determine what character encoding your reply uses - and so cannot correctly view the Kanji you wrote. (I tried UTF-8, UTF-16, ...
Thanks for the encouragement! Yes, of course, testing is necessary. After trying a few programs, I settled on Anki as a spaced repetition system ......
Karl, I agree with you that there's no need to use a Japanese word to get the mnemonic to work. However, if you know the japanese word really well, as good as...
Karl: I always do a web post, and at the bottom of the Yahoo page, I select that the post is in Japanese. When I do the preview, the Kanji come out fine, but...
... Unlike Windows, there is only one version of OSX that works for all languages, and the language can be changed from system preferences. So you just have...

Using the search function, I found this: http://home.scarlet.be/ahmo0008/temp/heisigkanjilist.utf8 Is there a list that I can directly import into Mnemosyne,...

I have my encoding set to UTF-8, and the kanji shows up fine in Firefox. I usually have problems like you're describing when I use IE, so if that's the case...
Well, no, it doesn't - the Kanji in your gif aren't shown correctly - they look just the same as they do on my Linux system - and are completely wrong. Take a...

Hullo there, My name is Callista, and I'm from Brussels. I began with kanji last august.
I was lucky enough to discover Heisig's method and bought the book....
Hello Callista Thank you for this information. Another ESSENTIAL site for me is Reviewing the Kanji at http://kanji.koohii.com The amazing part of this site is...
Here is my stab at this one. 1. The Chiya is probably large Chi with small Ya making "Cha". "Cha" is an informal contraction that replaces "tewa" where "wa" is...
