Would it be possible to add an option to disable the pinyin in the examples? To me it feels slightly counterproductive to learn all these characters, only to be served fully pinyinized examples, and unfortunately my brain is really adept at taking the easy way out
For me a toggle would do just fine, but for more fanciness perhaps pinyin on mouseover like e.g. Mandarin Bean does it?
And while weāre here, maybe the example fontsize could be increased slightly for the Chinese text? I have a habit of justā¦ not reading them, because theyāre tiny, and Iām busy.
I can see how as one learns more itās important to get away from the pinyin labeling.
The pinyin and English are there to help out newcomers in making it more approachable I suppose
A toggle sounds like a good middleground.
Iāll give it a bit more thought, seeing if thereās an easier way to solve āno more pinyin side-by-sideā but another toggle certainly doesnāt hurt.
Increasing the font-size is something worth doing in either case
I switched it over to a larger font and weāll pilot having only hover access to the accented pinyin of the words.
If we find that having the separate pinyin listed there helps/is requested enough, then we can look into a user site-wide setting that toggles whether to display the pinyin separately or not
But you had a very strong pointāitās arguable that having the pinyin there all the time actively harms oneās learning.
to learn all these characters, only to be served fully pinyinized examples
Itās important for one to test whether they know the pronunciation of a character. Having the pinyin right there greatly diminishes the usefulness of the examples so now one can access it behind a hover/tap
