Frequently Asked Questions
Is Kaitenji free?
Kaitenji currently operates with donations on Patreon. You are not forced to donate to use our website, but donations help keep the servers running and have more features developed.
How can I change the SRS time intervals?
Click on Settings in the sidebar and go to the SRS tab. There you will be able to specify how many hours are in each level of SRS.
How do I upload my own items?
There are two types of decks that are created through the content you provide Kaitenji. These decks are located in My Decks in the sidebar. The first is Text Parsing Decks. These decks allow you to copy and paste Japanese text into Kaitenji and we will create a deck out of all vocabulary and kanji that the text contains. The second is Flashcard Decks. You can upload any items you want through a CSV file. We have an example CSV for you to download. It is important that you download the example file as it is in a special format that allows Japanese text to be saved in it without turning into gibberish.
What opensource information or software does Kaitenji utilize?
Our vocabulary, kanji, and names come from the JMdict and Kanjidict open-source dictionary projects. JMdict-EDICT Dictionary Project KANJIDIC Project Our romaji to kana conversion is done through Wanakana under the MIT License.
