How to actually learn these words
- Say every word out loud as you flip it — silent review builds recognition, speaking builds recall.
- Use spaced repetition: review right before you'd forget. Our study mode schedules each card automatically.
- Go both directions: English → Swedish is the one that helps you SPEAK; don't skip it because it's harder.
- Little and often beats cramming: five minutes a day outperforms an hour on Sunday.
