Description

I've created a more streamlined and simplified version of this deck: https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1442436955 , and also added a 'listening' card type in case you want to practice hearing the pronunciation and then identifying on which mora the accent occurs. I find Anki's 'cram mode' works better for listening practice, because it's less about memorizing and more about training your ear. This is only the 10000 most frequent words. You can get the complete 80000 entry deck at: https://mega.nz/#!QnYynAhS!c2t_MAHGaq2UGDL8beIfv5mY6SDZekBVNLt6_cWPuUk

Reviews

I looked for an alternative or improved version to the automatically generated deck by Yoga which has a thousand issues but this isn't it. This deck has a card for every possible pitch accent of every word. This means you have ambiguous cards with the same front field but different answers (and using the duplicate search in Anki this seem affect over 3000 of the 10000 notes). It also keeps all the sorting mistakes and rare words that Yoga's bad deck has correcting nothing. I think this all makes the deck pretty much unusable. There really doesn't seem to be a decent pitch accent deck anywhere.

This is a much accesible version of the original deck. 10000 words are much more attainable than memorizing the whole 80000 words of a dictionary, the vast majority of which are very likely to never be useful. Also 10000 words is roughly what you need for the JLPT N1, so this is perfect, assuming it has been narrowed down to the must useful words.



The previews negative review about it using katakana for the Kun reading is nonsense and somebody who clearly doesn't know what they are talking about. ALL of the words' pitch accent is shown in katakana in official Pitch Accent Dictionaries, regardless of it being ON or KUN reading. It's just customary. Besides, what does that even mean that "it shows ミル but is pronounced みる"? It's not like pronunciation changes between hiragana and katakana. They represent exactly the same sounds.



This deck is specifically for pitch accent training NOT for Kanji readings (although it is also useful for that). Since I saw this bullshit negative review I felt that I needed to give this deck a positive review to contrast it.

Shows pronunciation and pitch in katakana even when using the kun reading. For example 見る is shown as ミル and pronounced みる
