Fangga (ᡶᠠᠩᡤᠠ)
ᡶᠠᠩᡤᠠ (Fangga) means magic in Manchu, and this Anki add-on might seem like magic (if you don’t know how to code lol otherwise it’s just some very basic Python).
Fangga is an Anki add-on that makes it easy to go between Manju script and Romanized Manchu following the Möllendorff system. It’s very easy to use, just do the following:
Install the Fangga using the add-on code on this page Create a card template with the following fields: “Manchu” and “Romanization”. These fields are case-sensitive—you can have whatever other fields you want, but you must have these two for anything to happen When creating a card, fill in one of the fields After that, press Shift+Ctrl+X or Shift+Cmd+X, and the other field will be filled automatically
At the moment, this works on a card by card basis… perhaps I will update it to allow for bulk card creation in the future but for now this is sufficient for my purposes.
I would like to acknowledge this repo, as the way I handled Romanization->Manchu was driven by their methodology.
