Always confirm them using a dictionary. If still in doubt, skip the senence. Hiragana.jp mostly fails/is incorrect on personal and place names (Tanaka Masahiro[田中正弘], etc.) >So is it safe to use readings generated by hiragana.jp and post them into your SRS?

There should be a second closing paren at the end. If you want, you can cut and paste it from my entry at http://www.joewright.org/var/archives/2006/11/help_for_the_ka.html Hmmm, looks like my paste got cut off.

And here's another tip for using hiragana.jp: Thanks to the miracle of bookmarklets, you don't even need to go to the trouble of loading up Hiragana Megane and typing/copying in the URL. All you have to do is this (using Firefox; I don't know if it works in IE or other browsers): go to your bookmark manager and create a new bookmark, then paste in the following as the "Location": javascript:void(document.location='http://trans.hiragana.jp/ruby/'+escape(document.location)) I put this in my Toolbar with the description "Hiragana Meganize". Now when I wind up at a Japanese page with kanji, I simply click my "Hiragana Meganize" bookmark on the toolbar and presto: the page is reloaded with furigana. Very, very slick.

Thanks, Alex. I haven't used reading aids in a while (blows on fingernails and brushes them on collar). Thanks for letting people know about a better option :D. Oh! Thanks, Alex.
