- cmmike 10y agoThis issue is most likely the result of the hiragana being automatically generated and some kanji having different pronunciations based on context. I tend to trust the voices, and look up conflicting words in jisho.org to be sure. Ideally in the future I'll be able to get some kind of human moderation in place for checking the hiragana/pronunciations.
- tiglionabbit 10y agoYou'd think you could use whatever generates the voices to also generate the phonetics for the kanji.
- Nadya 10y agoThis is exactly the problem! :) For example for 「何」 you'll likely seen the kana written as 「なに」 instead of 「なん」 for 「何ですか」
