Thanks for both your responses - Yes I think that reviewers issue has been resolved. He obviously was probably seeing that character is several separate words. My method is when I initially acquire the words, I’m using hand writing, then I use the reading for the SRS and I load up the mnemonics with the narratives from Zizzle (using that developer’s same system for monosyllables he hasn’t come up for yet, to create my own narrative mnemonic).
I SRS both the individual monosyllable words AND the Di-syllable words. (I’m also learning Traditional Characters in a separate account so it doesn’t overflow my SRS/I don’t learn a Traditional before learning a Simplified).
In it’s current state Scritter is pretty good. I find the TONES and DEFINITION tests redundant as you can just review READING (hiding the english definition) and mark it wrong if you get either of those wrong.
I like the fact they recently looked into some Cloze Deletion with the writing part. I think that has a lot of potential down the road.
Really awesome that this is out there. Because everything would be a little worse having to rely on some of the alternative apps out there for literally being the core of your language acquisition system (especially for beginner & intermediate learners) - I would say until I get to 3k words, this is by far the most important system. (and will always compliment future systems).
I don’t know how hard it is to implement, but if you can come up with a new test “cloze deletion” and roll it out on the reading side. And even improve upon Cloze Deletion pro. (understandably it would be a long term project-cost/benefit). This app would be amazing.
Maybe even like “hit” passive words you see in the example cloze deletion sentences to “add” to your queue. /tier the difficulty of the sentences. Possibly start out with a core of doing this with 600 or so words (fluent forever style). But otherwise, it is really great at what it does!
