Description

About the Add-on

This add-on was developed to automate and streamline the creation of Japanese flashcards in Anki.

Inspired by the excellent work of Shigeඞ, it acts as an intelligent assistant: simply type a word or sentence into the main field, and the remaining fields will be filled automatically. This greatly reduces the time required to create flashcards, allowing you to focus on learning instead of data entry.

Data Sources

The add-on relies on structured lexical databases to provide accurate and reliable information.

Japanese

  • Open lexical database from Kaikki.

Note Types

The first time you launch Anki after installing the add-on, two custom note types will be created automatically:

Japanese - auto

Designed for vocabulary study, including fields such as:

  • translation;
  • kana reading;
  • On'yomi and Kun'yomi readings (when applicable);
  • transitivity information (vt for transitive verbs and vi for intransitive verbs, when available);
  • and other lexical information.

Japanese Sentences - auto

Designed for studying complete sentences and example usages.

Main Features

  • Automatic completion of translations and grammatical information.
  • Integrated offline dictionary for fast lookups without requiring an internet connection for most entries.
  • Automatic detection of On'yomi and Kun'yomi readings for kanji, when available.
  • Automatic identification of transitive (vt) and intransitive (vi) verbs, whenever available.
  • Kana readings and part-of-speech information.
  • High-quality Text-to-Speech (TTS) audio generation using Google Text-to-Speech.
  • Automatic translation fallback when a word is not available in the local dictionary.

Recommendations

For an even smoother card creation workflow, it is recommended to use this add-on together with a field and tag cleanup extension, such as mine.
