Is it possible to drop some translations for my own cards? Because for example kan4 看 has 8 translation and I dont need them all.

Especially when I am using the audio app it is a bit annoying.

Thank you in advance

看 is just the action itself; 看见 implies the result of the action 看, which is expressed by 见.

Consider adding 看开 : accept (or resign oneself to) an unpleasant fact or situation; not take to heart
