Flashcards
English vocabulary flashcards, A1 to C2.
How flashcards work
A set is a group of words and phrases, usually on one topic. A card has the word, a definition in English and usually a Russian translation.
Cards
Turn the card, listen to the word, then mark it Know or Still learning.
Choose
See the word and pick its definition from up to four, or the other way round.
Write
Read the definition or the Russian translation and type the word in English. A wrong answer comes back later in the round.
Keep the hard words
Signed in, press Save on a card to keep it in My words. Review today brings it back a day later, then at longer gaps as you get it right.
Without an account you see the first 5 cards of each set, and the trial lesson in full. Sign in to keep your marks and saved words.
