Now that Google.cn defaults to google.hk, I got quite a shock with all those darn traditional characters.
In simplified language mode, I've completed HSK1 and HSK2, and 75% through HSK3 with writing practice only. At this point, I feel adventurous enough to try to start learning traditional character equivalents. However, I'm having trouble figuring out how to do so inside Skritter.
At first, on account settings, I changed my language preference from simplified to traditional. After that, I found that Skritter only proffered words that had common forms between simplified and traditional. Then I tried changing account language preference to both and a few traditional characters made their way into my queue.
However, since my traditional vocabulary is much retarded compared to my simplified vocabulary, I would like to start from HSK1 and HSK2.
I go to vocabulary->textbooks and click Study button on HSK1 and HSK2. Then from practice page, I click study HSK1 or HSK2. After practicing a few words that all have <100% due, I notice from the drop-down menu that the list is paused, so I click the play icon. I might get a word or two added, but after practicing a few more characters, inevitably I end up with the 3 dots of death as it waits and waits and waits for the next character.
After refreshing everything, I go back to the practice page and notice that HSK1 and HSK2 have both disappeared from my practice page. Repeat ad infinitum.
Am I running into a bug?
Are there better ways to accomplish my goal?
