Hi Andrew! I'm a new member and my learning is centered around anki (actually Migaku but importing anki cards is really easy) so I'm excited to see the integration, I had been making them myself.

Could you add the sentences and the sentence audio to the cards? I find it helpful to see the word in context and hear the related native audio

Hi there. We’ve been working on this and think it’s now sorted. Try downloading the latest Anki list for the Saturday newsletter. It should have audio and example sentences: https://www.realtimemandarin.net/anki/uploads/House%20prices_fall_in_Chinas_cities_advanced.apkg

Thanks for working on this Andrew!

Is it possible to move the audio to a different field? Right now there's expression, meaning, reading, and examples. If you could create a different field in the anki card for the audio, that would be great! Migaku imports based off of the different fields so it needs them all to be separate.

And I have two more requests for the cards, but if these are too much additional work, I'd be happy with them just doing the above.

Can you add the translation of the example sentence in a different field?

Can you split up the word audio from the sentence audio? Ideally have a field for the word audio and a separate field for the sentence audio. Or cut out the word audio and only have the sentence audio.

Hi. Try this new format. We can’t split the audio out but managed to achieve other features: https://www.realtimemandarin.net/anki/uploads/House%20prices_fall_in_Chinas_cities_advanced.apkg

Hi - Thanks for the feedback! Really glad you like it. So you are the second person to ask for this! My original response was we don’t have the capacity to add this in right now. But given you have also asked I will do my best to find a way to include in our work flow. Although it may take a couple of weeks to work it out.

Great! I know it's a bit of a lift but it'll definitely be appreciated! Thank you Andrew

Thanks. Leave it with me. So re the Anki integration, can I also say it is compatible with Migaku? Or do they have a different file format?

Hmm you could say it is or at least can be easily imported into Migaku.

Migaku has it's own flashcard system, but it directly links with your local anki so anything there can be imported in a couple of clicks.

Hi Andrew, London "Nerdfest" link doesn't seem to be working - leads to Washington instead.
