The mandarin setup is quite nice, seems like it's the most popular and has a large number of contributors of "mems".

Just started today, already almost 10k pts. I will play this until I get rank1 in the world I think.

Thanks for sharing, now I have something to do during class.

Another bug (german):

In your dictionary you have the word 'funfte' in your database for 'fifth'. I checked on a big online dictionary and i see the correct word is fünfte. Now i made a wordlist and i try to add fünfte in it, it tells me "adding word fünfte", it loads for a second and then says "Added word funfte" and in my list appears funfte instead fünfte.


Also (maybe not a bug) i can't move a freshly added word on the list until i reload the page with the wordlist.

Seems to be a lot of complaints of bugs in this thread, in my experience it has been fairly bug free :D

I think Take/Khaldor need to make some youtube videos for learning german and add them to memrise.

Hey, I'd like to have an option to print words with definitions. If I could choose between harvested and growing plants to print would be cool too. I like to memorize words rereading them on a piece of paper. Please consider this one.

I would like that when you partly answer correct you would be show somewhere the correct form. Not as when you completely miss the word and you get taken to its page, but only show you the correct word on the same page or add the missing letters to the written word and highlight them.
They first ignore you. After they laugh at you. Next they will fight you. In the end you will win.

I'm having the pronunciation bug, too, in my Japanese wordlists. If I activate "show pronunciation" then I only see pronunciation. I want about half pronunciation and about half kanji.

Also, I've just harvested five plants from my garden, and four of them were immediately marked as wilted. Is that intentional? It seems like a bug. They're all marked as having required watering 11 hours ago, which makes it look like the repetition I just did to harvest them is being ignored when calculating the times.

What do you think, which is the best set for freshening my german vocabulary? Which one of these has voice/video help? I've tried some spanish basic set, and the spoken word was so helpful.

learnt 50 words mandarin so far in 3 days. it`s really good and can only recommend it to everyone who want to try learning an new language.

If anyone has a good list of basic korean words (simple numbers, greatings and the most common sentences to get along with new people) please PM me that list. Thanks in advance

If you're taking Survival mandarin beware, you will learn 200 words and still not know about counting nor saying hello (nor I love you), but you'll know about characters that don't even exist by themselves (like what they call "small dog" etc).
Any character without pinyin -> ignore word
Any character looking weird -> check dictionnary -> ignore word

This course is ok but kinda broken at the same time. Keep some other material around or you'll end up with illusions about your mandarin skills.
Well, good luck anyway.

i know spanish and some things don't really make sense to me,e.g. darle a uno mala espina,even as a debutant i know there is something wrong with it!

Quite - the mandarin courses are sort of confused.

On the one hand, they're geared towards those trying to achieve fluency in Chinese - they first teach you the radicals (characters that don't exist by themselves) and the ancient rather than contemporary meanings of simple characters so that you can more easily learn compound characters in the future. I think this approach only pays off if you're planning to reach at least intermediate level.

On the other hand, they have a word list entitled "survival mandarin", which would suggest a very concise list of the most important characters to get your basic skill level up as fast as possible. However, instead, this list also takes this "radical first" approach, which is full of useless words for those trying to quickly learn the basics for a trip to China.

I'm currently practicing (both spanish and) finnish. While learning finnish, I encountered some mistakes (typo's) in the actual word list (severel times it says täma instead of tämä- a finnish native said it should be tämä). Is there a way for me to edit or request edits to that word? Thanks!

Yeh, in the Finnish newspaper words list there is like 3 I've encountered (not related to the Finnish part though). It says tuote is 'producit' instead of 'product', hassu is 'fangit' instead of 'funny' and kehitys is utveckling instead of (from what google tells me is) 'development'.

Would be cool to have a report / flag function but I completely understand it's early days for the site and there's so many suggestions and stuff it will take some time to become relatively flawless.

The report/flag button is a very good idea.

For now, post a comment on the 'Discussion' tab for the word, e.g.

[url=http://www.memrise.com/item/158640/tuote-producit/]http://www.memrise.com/item/158640/tuote-producit/[/url]

We try to be very responsive about fixing things that come up in discussions. Also, that way, if there's any contention, we can work it out in public.

We're putting a lot of energy into moderation tools, so bear with us!
