Glossika Anki Decks

This is some crappy Ruby code I wrote to parse PDFs from Glossika and turn them into Anki decks for personal use.

It generates two decks:

Chinese -> English/Chinese/Pinyin

These are straight from the PDF in the order they appear.

Chinese character -> Chinese/Pinyin/English

This is a bit of a mouthful: this deck has all the traditional chinese characters in order by frequency of appearance in Chinese texts on the front, and it has the simplest (as determined by a crappy scoring function) Chinese sentence in the corpus of Glossika sentences containing that character on the back.

See my other repo for the source data for this: https://github.com/dseevr/anki-decks-for-the-most-common-chinese-characters

Why did you make this?

Because I've discovered that learning characters/words/tones/meanings without context is impossible and SRS is wonderful for helping you remember things. Glossika's product is great on its own, but I want to learn to read Chinese and it's not designed to teach that.

Why does this only support the Taiwan Mandarin PDFs?

Because TAIWAN NUMBAH ONE!!!

It could support other PDF types, but you'd need to modify a ton of code. You'd honestly be better off using this project as a guide and writing your own from scratch.
