These are some additional questions about vocabulary counted towards Japanese level roles and N1/N2 vocabulary schedules from the train of thought from my other thread.
1. What are the "vocabulary" counted towards the level roles, e.g. studying N2, studying N1, etc.? Is it specifically vocabulary schedules only, so if I have studied 60% of the Renshuu N1 vocabulary study schedule, then that should count as 60% of N1? Or are there other things in other schedules/study resources that go into that? Same thing for the higher levels, "J advanced 3" upwards, is it purely just total vocabulary words that get counted towards the total # words studied?
The reason I ask the above question is there seems to be a discrepancy between the % of terms I have studied in my vocab schedules and the % calculated when I use /profile in the discord. For example, as of last night I had studied 1613/2695 N1 vocabulary 1140/1232 of N1 kanji. If it's just counting terms in the vocabulary schedule, I think that should be almost 60% (if you put together vocab + kanji it's a higher percent), but /profile said I had studied only 34% of N1. Or, as of today, I've finished studying all the words in the N2 vocabulary schedule (and have been finished with those kanji for a while), but /profile shows me at 80% of N2. So, I was wondering where the rest of the terms are located. My study schedules were made a very long time ago, so if there have been any updates/additions to Renshuu's N2 and N1 vocabulary schedules any time in the last decade, that might account for some of it. However, 20% is a lot, so I'm not sure if the discrepancy is due to my schedule not including some updated vocabulary or if there are some other things that get counted towards Japanese level roles besides just vocab (grammar? sentences? something else?). . . . Or, whether it's partly just due to a time lag between my current # of terms studied and the results shown when I use /profile.
2. Just to be sure, have there been any updates/additions to Renshuu's N2 and N1 vocabulary schedules (I guess the kanji schedules, too) in the last decade or so? Just want to make sure I add them if there have.
1. It is just vocab - it would be nice to add kanji, but ...that would complicate the levels more than I'd prefer.
2. There have been updates, but not *gigantic* ones. I would do the following:
Go to Tools > Japanese Index, Add Words, then choose each of the jlpt levels from there (N2 and N1) and see if you notice a discrepancy between your materials and what appears there :)
No problem, thank you for taking the time to answer!
There were more words listed in the index than in my schedule, so I guess that must be where the discrepancy was.
Using this method won't create duplicates in my schedule, will it? After adding those I now have a larger number in my schedule than listed in the index, but not by a huge amount, so it might be that some words that were in my N1 schedule have since been removed or moved to other lists.
