japanese speakin' folks, help me out. is there any situation where 一人 is pronounced any way other than ひとり (hitori)? jisho doesn't seem to think so. but the voice clip attached to the word in duolingo, like when it's one of the words you click to form sentences, says かずと (kazuto). in both voices!!! and it's driving me nuts
@typhlosion@awoo.space 一人 as かずと or かずひと is a given name
@purplemontart yeah, this is probably what it was pulling from
the context is that duolingo gives you buttons with, like, lexical units on them (which you click to form sentences for translation exercises), and it's supposed to play a voice clip saying the way it's supposed to be pronounced
you can probably guess how this causes problems with kanji, but usually when it's a group of multiple kanji together it's pretty good about using the right reading! not this time though
@typhlosion@awoo.space Oh, I know duolingo :P I meant the sentence
@purplemontart i mean, it doesn't matter what the sentence is, it always uses the same reading for any given group of kanji by itself. duolingo has yet to ever use 一人 in the context of a name or anything, and they pronounce it correctly in the context of full sentences, so it threw me way off that that was the reading it chose for the button on its own
@typhlosion@awoo.space Fair!
