Anki Flashcards

The game teaches you words but even on beginner it's impossible to get more than 12 words in without running out of time. The words always appear in the same order so you get lots of practice on some words and never see others. You can get additional time by watching an advert but that still doesn't get you far into the word list and whilst I've tried watching a second and, it didn't bring an advert up. I feel like it has potential but in needs to be at least a tiny bit achievable

I recently installed Anki and am amazed the number of languages it covers. However, since its words are predominantly nouns, it doesn't provide a sense of language with words used in context... like phrases or shot sentences. But I'm thankfully for small mercies. The interface really needs a makeover, and the clutter in the background impedes learning.

I can see it being amazing once you have kanji down as well as hirigana (might not need to know much katakana yet either), my only wish is it had an option to focus on hirigana words so you can practice reading out and memorizing the sounds, but I realise that probably really limits what you can practice. It's intended to be a vocabulary tool at the end of the day, so for what it is its phenomenal 😁
