It seems to me that you have literally tried everything!! There is nothing else I can think of …Do you want to try accessing this link http://www.memrise.com/course/1135341/japanese-1/2/ for the last time to see if it makes any difference? I’m so sorry for the nuisance! Meanwhile I will speak to more techy people at Memrise to see what I can do.

Yey! There is “i” in that course 
So… can I use that one?
But for the most time I use my android app coz phone is always on me.
Still without “i” in “my” memrise Japanese 1 course
Should I just take this course?
Is it still not there?
If not, please just continue with the course. I have added the item but have changed nothing else in the course so your progress should not be affected. We can only hope that it will appear soon (since other users have no trouble viewing the item). This is very annoying! My apologies.

I’ve found a little mistake. Japanese 2, lesson 19 (handy phrases). “Excuse me” is written “すいません” instead “すみません”. Have a nice day and thanks for your hard work!

Hi Mizuhana2,
Thank you for the comment! Sumimasen and Suimasen are used interchangeably. Although they’re both polite, suimasen has a slightly more casual feel.

Ok… now is everything wrong. My small progress in japanese 1 is gone, but it says my streak in japanese is 12 days?
I noticed last night (~12hr ago) when I was reviewing my completed Japanese 1 course on desktop that い had become a ‘new word’ for me that I had to use ‘Learn new words’ to add back. Perhaps there was a glitch around then you can trace back with the engineers?
Regarding お茶, thank you for clarifying. I think since the focus is on Japanese context, that お茶 should be translated as just tea, but “こうちゃをください。” should be translated as “Black tea, please” since to a Japanese waiter that’s what you would be specifying. Alternatively, the card for “tea please” could become “おちゃをください。”
Now, I got my progress back, but still don’t have sign for “i”. Not even on the web.
So, it isn’t matter.
Should I just pick that other japanese 1 course?
@MarikoMizutani
OK. Last try. I will remove app from my phone and install it again. I am not sure what to do about web, but I am not using it very often anyway.
Ok. I am done. Installed it again and nothing has changed. I will stop whining about this subject just about… now.
I didn’t know that. Thank you very much for your answer!

I have to assume that the courses for German speakers are plagued by the same (too many) problems?
level 2 in Japanisch 1 has よ rendered as “vo”, which is a bit strange… (i would start with this very msg also a forum for the courses for German speakers, however, the “regular” of me did not learn how to split and paste threads/msgs)
Hi Hydroptere,
Thanks for your post. The ‘swap’ issues only happen in English and Dutch. This is because Japanese for English speakers and Japanese for Dutch speakers were amongst the very first Japanese courses to be uploaded. Sorry for the confusion.
The よ transliteration has been fixed. Please give it a moment and/or log in and log out before the changes are reflected.

Hi Ramajana,
I’m sorry to hear that after multiple attempts the い is still missing. I’m not sure if there’s anything else I can do for you since it is being displayed on other devices. I’ve added い twice to see if that makes any difference. Please keep me posted if anything else happens.

I mean the course for German speakers, not for the Dutch …this time 
Hi JonathonSassmouthIro,
Thanks for the reply. い has become a new word because it has been added! I hope it didn’t surprise you too much. It will be useful for the prospective users when they’re prompted to type はい。
Thank you for your input regarding the tea discussion. I’m thinking about having two teas:
お茶: tea; green tea
紅茶 black tea
and the phrases accordingly. These changes won’t appear immediately as we need to have audio for them first. Please bear with me as I sort them out.

I’m talking about Japanese for German speakers as well. Glad to know I’m on the same page. よ was presented as vo before, it’s now presented as jo. Thanks

It is ok. I switched courses. I started the course Japanese 1 using link you provided earlier. I hope that is ok.
Thank you @MarikoMizutani

Ok! I opened a separate forum for the course for German speakers (but I’ll use English, no worries)
