All of JMdict (the dictionary behind e.g. Tangorin) used in accordance with its licence:

Update 13-feb-2016:
- Fixed daft furigana bug
Update 07-feb-2016:
- Updated JMdict to the latest version
- Got rid of the annoying 'choices!' thing & relegated it to a tag. Added some javascript to the card template to conditionally show the alternatives
- Cleaned up the tags a bit more, though unfortunately only a small proportion of the core6k and core10k cards matched due to differing kanji usage. Todo: better matching.
- A few more furigana fixes
- About 900 entries that were in the old version of the dict but not in current version are tagged 'old1'. These can be deleted if you want; they seem mostly useless but not entirely, hence left in.
Update 30-may-2015:
- Cleaned up the tags a bit, though they are still a bit rough.
- Added all remaining sense info except lsource as it didn't look terribly useful. Maybe will add it in next release.
- Put parts of speech in || to make them searchable
Default fields:
Sequence:
Unique identifier, taken from JMdict itself. Useful for consistent updates.
Expression:
An automated choice of the word's writing. A common writing was chosen where available, otherwise it's the first on the list. In some cases this will require editing on a card-by-card basis as no allowance has been made for obscure kanji etc.
Reading:
Same as Expression with added furigana.
Meaning:
Senses of meaning, parts of speech, misc usage tags, etc, similar to a Tangorin entry.
Find:
All writings and readings of a word in a format that facilitates searching in Anki's browser.
FrontNotes:
Notes intended to appear on the front of a card. By default this is "choices!" where an automated choice was made for Expression and/or Reading.
BackNotes:
Notes intended to appear on the back of a card. Empty by default, but I find it can be useful to have.
I am an intensive user of this deck and intend to release regular updates as & when I think of improvements. If you have any suggestions, please let me know by posting a comment in this thread on
