Is there any chance you could add projected N3 kanji to go along with the vocab? I know nothing is certain with regards to the content, but there are a few projected lists floating around: http://www.tanos.co.uk/jlpt/jlpt3/kanji/ http://www.jlptstudy.com/N3/N3_kanji-list_main.html http://www.tanos.co.uk/jlpt/jlpt3/kanji/mund/jlpt_n3_kanji.xls
I'm guessing you have all the joyo (plus somemore) kanji stored along with readings, etc in a table and the lessons just get those kanji by a cell reference to that table stopping duplication in the database right? If so hopefully unless I'm being naive it shouldn't be a huge task and even if you had to put a disclaimer on saying that these were only projected, I'm sure lots of users would find it invaluable.
Thanks! I've made some progress on this; it turns out the lists on the sites you mentioned are not compatible with my current lists. I'd like to migrate from the older lists to the new ones without disturbing any users (or rather, disturbing them as little as possible), so I need to think on that a bit.
By chance, do you use personal mastery schedules? If so, I can set you up with one for the n3 kanji as a make-shift solution until I get all the proper lists up.
Thanks for looking into this. I haven't been using personal mastery schedules for kanji yet. (but have for vocab as you know from another thread.) What I have done in the meantime (and both you and any other users are welcome to use/modify for their own ends as I've made them public) is create user based lessons for the projected N3 Kanji using the list available on Tanos.co.uk (which were made by using the most commonly occurring 2kyuu words on the Tanaka corpus). I've also stripped out the kanji that already appeared on your N5/N4 lists, so it should be good to go for anyone who wants to use it as a stop gap until you sort the issues out with N3 at the moment. It's buried in Lists/Kanji Lessons - JLPT N3 for the time being, but perhaps you could make it more predominant and easily visible for other users.
Um, I'm in between N1 and N2 right now, and after perusing the N3 kanji I can state that in 5 years of studying Japanese I've never encountered most of them. Are they really N3 difficulty? Many of them don't even have example terms.
What source did you use to come up with the N3 list?
[i]Edit: I didn't notice the kanji aren't up yet. I guess I was looking at the vocabulary (which is still screwy--how can you have terms with no known meaning?).[/i]
Not sure about his list, but the lists for renshuu.org (both kanji and vocab) are up for review in the beta version of the site. I'll be opening them up to the rest of the later this week.
Ah, I was wondering what the problem was. I wanted a kanji mastery schedule for Renshuu's official N5-N3 kanji, and whipped one up real fast without paying attention, and it kept wanting to add really odd/hard kanji when I'd go to start a quiz and it was time to add new terms (some with no meanings or common readings or anything.. I don't know what it would even test me on). I guess the problem is that since there isn't an N3 kanji list, it brings up the N3 vocab list instead, and I added that to my kanji mastery list.
I was unsure about putting my personal judgement over that of my "teacher's" and excluding the kanji that seemed off to me, but I guess now I wont feel so bad about it ;D
