[Course Forum] Japanese 1-7 by Memrise

In Japanese 3, British Version - “We’re Going To…”, 他 is listed in Romanji as “Ta”, which seems like a mistake.

@KanaTsumoto In Japanese 5, British Version - “Exploration”, 一番良い思い出は何ですか? Is translated into “what was your best experience?”. Should it not be “what is your best experience”? Or is the past tense implied?

I was wondering what is the official word count for Japanese 0-3? I haven’t really used Memorise app in awhile, and I’m trying to figure out how many of the courses have been updated in the past 6 months. These are the courses that I have. I haven’t moved on to Japanese 3 yet because it doesn’t seem to really change from the old version, and 4-7 seems to still be the old version.

Hi @will_gladulich30,

See KanaTsumoto’s (Japanese Language Specialist at Memrise) previous explanation:

Thing is I searched around the forums a month or two ago and apparently the Japanese 0-1 has some newer phrases to learn that I haven’t learned (and I already completed 0-2), so I was wondering if any of the other Japanese courses got updated with some newer stuff to learn, and the official word count for each of the Japanese courses. I guess since Japanese 3-7 are from the old courses, the stuff I previously learned from the newer ones doesn’t count towards the older ones, which is kinda annoying. I would like to automatically have them skipped.

Japanese 4 corrections:

〜を楽しみにしています is translated into “to look forward to …”

Perhaps “is looking forward to” is more accurate?

I’m sorry the massive delay.
It’s now updated to ‘the underground (train)’, so that we don’t confuse with 地下.
Thanks for flagging this!

Hi @mooog
Apologies for my delay; I just checked this and it looks ok to me, it says ミネラルウォーター in our database. Could you send me screeshots if you’re still having issues? Thanks!

Hi @will_gladulich30,

The automatically skip function would be really good indeed, that’s on our backlog but not happening just yet I’m afraid.
There were some items that were added to 0-1, maybe about 10. If you log out and log back in, any new changes to the courses should be reflected. The official count of words should appear on the course page both on web and the app, what I have here are…

  • Japanese 0: 150 words
  • Japanese 1: 348 words
  • Japanese 2: 473 words

Hi @JenelleDeren2,
Thank you for pointing this out! You have a very good point. We’re having issues with Japanese speech recognition to give meaningful feedback and we have very capable team working on this. Meanwhile, I have done a quick fix to improve it particularly for あのー. Could you log out and log in again to have the changes reflected? Thank you!

Hi,

I’d like to report a mistake in Japanese 3 (level 9). As you can see on the screenshot, 歯 is translated “dentiste”, which is wrong. 歯 is just “dent” (tooth) in French, “dentiste” is 歯医者. Could you please correct this mistake ?

Regards,

Tsuhya

Hello, I’ve found a typo in Japanese 2 (English) - stuff to do with friends
in “Let’s go cherry blossom veiwing”, “veiwing” should be “viewing”.

The learn with locals video for 好きな人 is incorrect, it shows the video for a different phrase.
Japanese 2, level 16

On level 14 you have seniour and juniour instead of senior and junior.
