Anki is phenomenal. It's a spaced-repetition flashcard app that lets you add your own fields and design card templates with html/css. And you can program automatic text-to-speech, add audio files, and embed images. #anki

For learning a new language, I was looking for a flashcard app for my phone, and the first suggestion I got browsing the DuckDuckGo search results was #Anki , a #FreeSoftware flashcard app, which had a hefty price in the Apple App Store, but I did not hesitate to pay for it, because it has all the nerd settings and insights that I need, and which I did not have 11 years ago when I was studying Korean full time.

Now I can't study full time, but I have a better app. Nice

Based on my pc and my voice and my #anki habits and my anecdotal experience with a very small sample size, a #poll :

Which of the four answer options is most often misparsed by #VoiceAccess ?

echo
0%
charlie
100%
bravo
0%
foxtrot
0%
Poll ended at .

I have added voice shortcuts meant to smooth out my experience using #anki with #VoiceAccess :

ECHO = again (enter, two seconds, press 1)
CHARLIE = hard (", ", press 2)
BRAVO = good (", ", enter)
FOXTROT = easy (", ", press 4)

and:

OSCAR = deck options (press o)
UNIFORM = undo (ctrl+z)
NOVEMBER = play recording (press r) mnemonic -> noisy november
JULIET = edit (press e) -> edit it, juliet
ROMEO = browser (press b) -> browse with me, romeo
and I'll probably add DELTA = deck list (press d)

Es könnte ewig so weiter gehen.

If you use Anki to learn Spanish, I cannot recommend this deck:

https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/2813133810

It has serious mistakes in the audio and the Spanish. In particular, the personal "a" is sometimes missing where needed.

I've switched to this deck. It may have problems, but right off the bat I'm happy with its approach.

I'll note here that flashcards are an *adjunct* to learning Spanish. My main tools right now are:

* Reading and replying to message in Spanish in the Fediverse.

* Reading books in Spanish.

* Listening to music in Spanish, with clear vocals.

* Spanish conversation every two weeks.

ETA: I'm intermediate in Spanish.

This is cool, I didn't know about FSRS. Maybe that's why Anki kind of never grew on me 🤔 going to try that out

Spaced Repetition Systems Have Gotten Way Better

Spaced repetition systems are a well-known way to efficiently learn material. Recent innovations have applied machine learning to greatly improve their scheduling.

@britt I find that a lot of #Anki creators are focusing on veeeery advanced setups, add-ons, and functionality. I didn't find them very useful when I learned Anki.

I'd recommend getting started with basic card templates or a pre-made deck, leaving defaults as-is, and then gradually changing things when you go "hmmm I sure wished I could do XYZ" and then googling and finding out how to that thing. 😅

I've been using it every day for a year now, happy to share some knowledge if you like!

J'ai entrepris de créer un jeu de cartes d'après
Kanji & Kana - Manuel et Lexique des 2141 Caractères Officiels de l'Écriture Japonaise - Éditions Maisonneuve, 2021. Au bout de quelques notes, je me suis rendue compte que la disposition habituelle, verticale, ne convenait pas ; je voulais quelque chose qui ressemble au livre : le kanji à gauche et les détails à droite. Après en avoir discuté ici et là, j'ai fini par opter pour la création d'un tableau en HTML. Ça a été beaucoup plus simple que j'imaginais ; je croyais devoir y passer le weekend mais finalement une heure a suffi.
Le détail du code :

Front :

/*Application du CSS styling*/ <recto>{{Kanji}}</recto>
Back :
/*Code HTML du tableau*/ <html> <style> td { border: 2px solid #00273e; border-radius: 10px; } </style> <body> <table style="width:100%"> <tr> <td style ="width:34%">{{FrontSide}}</td> <td rowspan="3"> <cat>Traits :</cat><br>{{Traits}}<br><br><hr> <cat>On'yomi :</cat><onyomi lang="ja">{{On'yomi}}</onyomi><br><br><hr> <cat>Kun'yomi :</cat><onyomi lang="ja">{{Kun'yomi}}</onyomi><br><br></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> /*Fin du code HTML du tableau*/ /*Application du CSS styling*/ {{#Sens}} <hr size=4px color=#00273e> <cat>Sens</cat><br> <fr_blockquote lang="fr">{{Sens}}</fr_blockquote> <br> {{/Sens}} /*Code pour activer et désactiver*/ /*les furigana*/ <input type="checkbox" id="check"/> <label for="check"> /*Application du CSS styling*/ {{#Exemples}} <hr size=3px color=#00273e> <cat>Exemples</cat> <ex_blockquote lang="ja"> {{furigana:Exemples}}</ex_blockquote> <br> {{/Exemples}}
CSS styling :
.card { font-family: ""; text-align: center; font-size: 12px; color: #140405; background-color: #f8e9d9; } @font-face { font-family: NotoSerifLight; src: url("_NotoSerifJP-Light.ttf"); } @font-face { font-family: NotoSerifMedium; src: url("_NotoSerifJP-Medium.ttf"); } @font-face { font-family: NotoSans; src: url("_NotoSansJP-Medium.ttf"); } @font-face { font-family: SourceSans3; src: url("_SourceSans3-Medium.ttf"); } :lang(ja) { font-family: NotoSerifMedium; } :lang(fr) { font-family: SourceSans3; } recto { font-family: NotoSerifLight; font-size: 64px; color: darkmagenta; } onyomi { font-size: 24px; color: #AD6044; } kunyomi { font-size: 23px; color: #AD6044; } fr_blockquote { display: block; font-family: SourceSans3; font-size: 19px; margin-left: 15px; margin-right: 15px; color: #004953; } cat { display: block; text-align: left; font-size: 12px; font-style: italic; } ex_blockquote { display: block; font-size: 22px; margin-left: 35px;; margin-right: 0px; text-align: left; color: darkmagenta; } français { font-size: 19px; color: #004953; } /*===========*/ /*start furigana*/ /*===========*/ /* hide the checkbox */ #check{ display:none; } /* when checkbox is active, show for furigana */ #check:checked + label ruby rt { font-family: NotoSans; color: black; visibility: visible; } /* furigana hidden by default*/ ruby rt { visibility: hidden; } /*==========*/ /*end furigana*/ /*==========*/
