The limitation with flashcards is that you get the entire answer, not sure if there are flashcard apps with a hint function? I experimented with vocab training where you can peek the first two letters which helps jog the memory.
- kebsup 2y agoI've created a flashcard app with a hint function. I mention it in another comment.
- mtalantikite 2y agoClozemaster has something like that where you can get the first letter as a hint. I tried Anki for a few languages and would always burn out making cards. Clozemaster is nice because it puts the word in the context of a sentence and then has an “explain” function that uses ChatGPT to explain the grammar. And they group words by sets of frequency (100 most common, 500 most common, etc)
- jeofken 2y agoIn Anki, select the “Cloze” card type, and add hints with this syntax {{c1::answer::hint}} Try encoding the same information in multiple cards to train your brain to understand the concept rather than recognise the card. Good luck!
- barrell 2y agoThere’s a hint function on phrasing.app :) we’re launching the public beta this week sometime
- david_allison 2y agoAnki has two types of hint fields (and the CSS/JavaScript in Note Types is editable, so you can add your own functionality if this is insufficient) * https://docs.ankiweb.net/templates/fields.html#hint-fields https://docs.ankiweb.net/templates/fields.html#hint-fields * https://docs.ankiweb.net/editing.html#cloze-deletion:~:text=You%20can%20also%20give%20yourself%20hints https://docs.ankiweb.net/editing.html#cloze-deletion:~:text=...
