Formatting Tips ✍️
The JapanDict forum supports Markdown. You can improve post readability by using the toolbar to format text, or do it manually.
- Use subheadings to help split text-heavy posts into clear objectives: You can use this to help organize the text of a post. To organize longer posts with subheadings, use
#
for 1st level headers, ##
for 2nd level, ###
for 3rd level and so on.
- Format blockquotes by placing
>
at the beginning of a line
