Hi there,
I’m new to using LingQ, so my opinion may shift as I continue to on my learning journey, but I was thinking that it might be a useful feature to add a shortcut to toggle pinyin for Chinese lessons. Currently I have pinyin off for my normal lessons, because if I have I have it on all the time, I find myself mostly reading the pinyin instead of the actual Chinese characters. This hurts my character recognition, so I keep it off. Now I come across characters that I know the translation and definition of, but forget the exact pronunciation. I don’t really want to click on those characters just to get the pinyin, because I feel it disrupts the flow of reading the lesson for a relatively minor reminder. If I could quickly toggle the pinyin on and off with a keyboard shortcut, I think it would be the best of both worlds for convenience and effective learning strategies.
I don’t know if this would be useful for anyone else’s Chinese learning approach, but I thought it might be an easy addition. Maybe not.
best,
Kyle
