The Bunpro plugin was also updated with these changes (new version linked in the original post)

  • fix: activate on correct URL
  • fix: match answers that include particles, e.g. ใฎใ‚ใ‚Šใซ. this should work in general for answers with particles like this, however this particular phrase snags on the speech recognition in my experience (it hears ็ต‚ใ‚ใ‚Šใซ)
  • fix: match answers that include kanji. eg ๅ…จ็„ถ, ๆฅใพใ™
  • improvement: fuzzy match on ใฏ particle to allow it to be pronounced โ€œwaโ€

I have used it for a few hours now on Bunpro. It works well, but some times I get the answer right but it does not in input it. And it is hard to know if you get it right or wrong because it does not show a hint or any thing after 3 times like lipsurf on the wanikani.

So I have been just saying it once and typing it in if it does not work. I have been typing in %60 or so. Because I donโ€™t want to say ใ ใ‚ if I type in it correct.

Thank you for making this. (=

Thanks for trying the plug in and for the feedback, adding a hint mode after several tries is a good idea, I will look into it.

And thanks for the example of ๆฅใฆใ‚ˆใ‹ใฃใŸ, I will try to reproduce it. If you have any other example grammar items they would be helpful

I will collect them, if I run in to any more. Thanks again for making this. I was doing dictate in bunpro and editing out the kanji. This is way better (=

Hi, I should have probably noticed earlier but for me it does not recognize any words I say with kanji. Only simple grammar that is only hiragana.

Hi thanks for the extra info. There was a fix for some kanji answers, unfortunately the new version doesnโ€™t fix the problem in all cases, your example of ๆฅใฆใ‚ˆใ‹ใฃใŸ is one of them.

The bad news is that fixing this is going to be challenging, and I havenโ€™t really had time to look into it recently. But I have some ideas and Iโ€™ve also reached out to Bunpro asking for assistance. I will post here with any updates either way

Update: I heard back from Bunpro already and they agreed to make a change to the site code to make the LS plugin more robust. No timeline on when this will happen (I will need to update the plugin after) but if all goes well it should solve many/all problems with failing to capture the answers

I will post back here when the fix is implemented and available for download
