A lot of old courses with unfindable new words (ukrainian language)

Hi,

So I do seem to be able to select Ukrainian words with ‘ again as one word (thank you) but now a lot of the courses that I opened while this bug was going on have unfindable new words in them. I think what happened was that a partial word got marked as a known word and now it doesn’t see that partial word anymore.

I’ve attached a screenshot with several of these but it affects quite a few more courses than this.

Thanks, we will investigate this.

A note that this is still ongoing. Here’s another screenshot from one of the affected lessons.

This word in the middle, з’явилось, is unclickable and unselectable. явилось is saved as a word (when I hit “end lesson”) I see it added as a new word, and the lesson continues to show up with unknown words, meaning that when I sort lessons by percent unknown it is at the top.

Thank you @susanficken for reporting this problem.

I tried to investigate this and can confirm that this problem occured for me with the word “з’явилось” in the “94 - Нове хобі” lesson as well.

But, editing the line, not even touching the word, fixed it.

So, LingQ team, you will need to look at other examples of this problem in other lessons.

@susanficken also listed “150 - Нові теми” as another lesson with this problem, and the 4th word of paragraph 1, “дев’ятий” also has this problem.

Here is a link to this lesson: Login - LingQ

My observation for the LingQ team: The apostrophe in these words is fine. Newer lessons with words that use this apostrophe are fine. But it seems that these problem lessons were created in the past during a time when words containing this apostrophe were not parsed and handled correctly. Simply reprocessing the same exact lines fixes the problem.

Edit:

I just checked the above shown “Ahead of Winter …” lesson, which is not that old (from September). And it also had that problem at the very start with the word “здоров’я”. I didn’t even edit the problem line in that lesson, I simply added an additional line at the very end of the lesson (and later deleted it), and the problem fixed itself.
