Start studying free →How to use these decks
Every deck is a curated list of the highest-frequency beginner words for its topic, shown with English translations — free to read with no account. When you are ready to actually memorise them, sign up free, save a deck, and study it with spaced repetition: the app schedules each word back just before you would forget it, so a few minutes a day is enough. Start with greetings and numbers in your chosen language, add one new deck a week, and within a month you will have the few hundred words that carry most everyday conversations.
Why flashcards work for vocabulary
Vocabulary is a pure memory problem, and spaced repetition is the most efficient memory method cognitive science has found — reviews at expanding intervals, timed to the moment before forgetting. It is how medical students survive anatomy and how polyglots stack languages. Read more in our study guides, or browse our 149+ free flashcards by topic.
