This is a plugin for Anki, an open source flashcard system. It pulls simplified J-J definitions from sanseido.net's デイリーコンサイス国語辞典 (Daily Concise Kokugo Jiten).
The plugin relies on having 2 fields,
- Word - The Japanese word to look up on sanseido
- Sanseido - The field to insert the definition into
If you'd like to change the names of these fields, edit lines 20-21 in sanseidoDefsForAnki.py
To add definitions, find the card in the browser window, and click Edit > Regenerate Sanseido definitions
Sanseido has some nice 辞書凡例 (Dictionary explanatory notes) for デイリーコンサイス国語辞典. Explanation on the symbols and abbreviations used can be found in section 9, 記号・略語一覧.
