Flashcars - can the radical be in the answer (or backside)?

[flameproof]

I started again doing some Mandarin. In HSK Flascards, is there a way to include the radical in the answer (or the imaginary backside of the card)?

At the moment, the only way to do that would be convert each of them to a custom card and then edit its definition to add the radical.

This one separated with a tab seems not to work:

// HSK 1 - singles + radicals
有    yǒu    have, own, possess; exist    月

And when I open the card with 'edit' I have very different data. Seems it's just reading the character and getting the other data from the Pleco dic.

Hi flameproof,

adding to Mike's reply, recently, @catusf has created these user dictionaries for radicals:

New Chinese Radical dictionaries

Hi guys I created 3 radical dictionaries to help me study Chinese characters, and now share them with you. I hope you find them useful too. Chinese Radical Lookup (RAL) dictionary that allows you to find the Chinese characters from component radicals. You can search by choosing on screen or by...

plecoforums.com

Perhaps you could duplicate the flashcards you are currently studying and remap them to @catusf's user dictionary?

To duplicate your current HSK flashcards, you could export them to a text file without definitions, then re-import them to a new category with Duplicates set to Allow and @catusf's user dictionary first in the list of dictionaries. (with "Fill in missing fields" enabled)

Hope this helps,

Shun

This one separated with a tab seems not to work:

// HSK 1 - singles + radicals
有    yǒu    have, own, possess; exist    月

You could add a few spaces in front of the 月, because the format needs to have at most three columns. (with two tabs as separators)

Do you already have a card for 有? If so, then make sure that "duplicate entries" on the import screen is set to "update + merge," otherwise it'll keep the existing card text.
