    One thing I’m starting to notice about Japanese is there are a billion ways to conjugate a verb. That’s intense, and intimidating. I know the best practice is making your own sentences, reading, and listening, but those aren’t always easy, or effective early on, so I was wondering if we could get an Anki deck that helps us practice all of the many jillion and a half ways to conjugate a verb.

    It’s not quite a deck, but wasn’t there a conjugation cheat sheet somewhere?

    I must have this! I have my notes, but they probably aren’t as elegant, and my notes are more likely to have errors.

    Any idea where I can find said cheat sheet?

    Not the foggiest. He used to have downloads marked on the chapter listing page, but now I can’t see them…

    Edit: Aha, found where the downloads have gotten to: http://www.textfugu.com/dl/

    The conjugation cheat sheet isn’t there, though, so… maybe just keep an eye on it? Or maybe I could just e-mail the copy I downloaded.

    Found it. Google to the rescue.

    It’s… not as comprehensive as I remember it being…

    Is this the one?

    http://www.tofugu.com/downloads/conjugation-cheatsheet.pdf

    All the Tofugu cheat sheets are located here: http://www.tofugu.com/japanese-resources/

    If you don’t mind shelling out $25, you can buy nine cheat sheets from Nihonshock.com. They look very well made and cover a variety of different areas. A lot more in depth than the Tofugu ones.

    You can read the Tofugu review on them here: http://www.tofugu.com/japanese-resources/nihonshock/

    This is the main page about them: http://cheatsheets.nihonshock.com/

    Thanks guys I’ll look them all over!

    Edit: Looking at the Textfugu one I’d say it’s way too bare bones. The NihonShock also has way too much stuff. ;) That’s mostly because a fair amount of it is stuff I’ll never need to reference, like the kana charts, or I’ve not yet covered. However, I’ll eventually cover those things, so it’s good to have them on the sheets. I think I’ll use the NihonShock as a proof read cheat sheet, and build my own in Illustrator based on that.

    Thanks!

    OK, I’ve built a quick alternative to those that really just strips out the things I don’t see myself needing for reference, and putting it on one page. I don’t know of a way to attach files on this forum, so I found a free file upload service that I’ve never used before, so I don’t know if it’s any good.

    Here’s the link:

    Let me know if you have any suggestions for changes, or if the link gives you problems.

    Also, if you want the Illustrator file where I’ve created layers and groups for easy formatting let me know.
