Train your memory and develop your language skills
The more languages a person knows, the more opportunities they have. These opportunities include communicating with people from other countries, learning more about their mentality and culture, and expanding your business by finding customers from other countries. Learning foreign languages is difficult and time-consuming, but it can also be fascinating. The developers of Anki could prove it.
What is this program?
Anki for Mac is an application for learning foreign languages and memory training. The principle of the program is using cards with foreign words and their translation. You can see a card with a simple phrase you need to learn. Then it would be best if you pressed the «Show answer» button. You will see the translation of the word or phrase. After that, you need to indicate how easy it was to remember the answer. You will see this card again during the session if you can't answer. In this way, the program makes a personalized learning system to help you learn new words faster without forgetting old ones.
Working with cards
The primary advantage of this app is the extensive options for creating and editing cards. You can add extra card fields. For example, adding the «examples» field makes it easier to remember a word due to the sentences where it was used. You can simultaneously learn words, their use in stable phrases, etc., by creating multiple fields. This dramatically expands the functionality of Anki. Moreover, you can connect plugins and view detailed training statistics. Cards can be downloaded from the Internet and edited to facilitate learning.
