Words stick better when learned in context
Word lists are fast, but they don’t prepare you to recognize and use words in real sentences.
Instead of memorizing one translation, you build memory for real usage and phrase patterns.
01
You keep the sentence you found it in
Every word is saved with its original context, not as an isolated card.
02
You review the word in different situations
The same word returns in multiple sentence contexts, so you learn how it behaves.
03
You learn the word’s natural partners
Context makes it easier to remember common combinations (collocations), not just meaning.
Memory gets stronger when recall becomes harder
You don’t remember by re-reading. You remember by trying to recall—and then getting feedback.
01
Spaced reviews do the timing for you
Words come back over time so you practice them before they fade.
02
Cloze gets harder as you improve
Start with one missing word. Later, you rebuild more of the phrase with less support.
03
You train retrieval, not recognition
You practice producing the word or phrase, not just spotting it on a card.
The company managed to ______ growth despite market pressure.
The company managed __ ______ __ despite market pressure.
Recognizing a word is not the same as being able to use it
Understanding is passive. Speaking and writing require ready-to-use phrases and collocations.
Link collocations and phrase patterns
Connect a word with natural combinations so it comes out as a chunk.
Write your own sentence and get feedback
Practice producing the word in your own sentence and spot awkward usage early.
Store multiple contexts for real situations
Save different scenarios so you can explain the problems you actually talk about.
