December 14, 2020 Content Patch Notes

ごきげんよう :shark_fancy:

Got some nice あったかい content fixes for you. I drank the あったかいお茶 so none of that left though, sorry…

Changes:

  • Updated a literal translation that was inaccurate / broken in Unit 96's sentence: うーん、たぶん知らないかな。小学校一緒だったまーちゃん。
  • Updated 空 vocab flashcard to be in line with the example sentence reading and meaning. そら → から (Example sentence is: それもう空だよ。 which uses から)
  • Added "wing" to the definition of 羽, which helps clarify its meaning in the example sentence "蝶や蛾の羽には鱗粉と呼ばれる物が付いています。"
  • Fixed the reading of 何 in the following sentence: 離婚に至った理由は何ですか?. Was なに, is now なん
  • Added "to" to the definitions of 貫通
  • Added "to" to the definitions of 貫く
  • Added "to" to the definitions of 害う
  • Fixed incorrect formality markers on the sentences "ピザを食べた。" and "ラーメンを食べた。". Both were marked as "Textbook Formal" but are now correctly "Textbook Casual".
  • Got rid of an "I" that was showing up as a literal in an English sentence in Unit 87.
