Remembering Vocabulary - Spaced Repetition System

Jul 1, 2022

SRS or Spaced Repition System is a more advanced flashcard system used to remember vocabulary.
 
I highly recommend trying out Anki:

There are a lot of excellent videos on the internet explaining how to set up and configure this
application. Anki is also incredibly customizable, allowing the user to display precisely the type of information that is relevant to them.

Remember: It is important to learn words in their logical CONTEXT.

When using Anki - don't just write down the word you are trying to learn; USE THE WORD IN A SENTENCE.
Using complete sentences will make the word easier to remember. This approach also helps with fluency, as you learn "chunks" of the language. You can use these "chunks" in conversation/writing instead of trying to form sentences using many isolated words. ◀
