THanks.... Great feature to discover!!!!
You bet! Glad it was helpful 😎
I'm new at Anki. I'm trying to lears Spanish. I've created multiple decks, each containing more or less 20 cards. But I wonder if it wasn't better to just create one deck and gradually adding al the words to that one deck? Or how does Anki function best?
Hello! I personally like having 1 deck per language. Unless perhaps you have a billion cards and want to separate them by level or something. On the desktop when you browse it's easy to drag and drop cards around if you decide you want to move decks. Happy language learning!
I use Busuu already 212 days. And me like this program . This is best, then Duolingo
Thanks for your thoughts 😎
Very informative
I'm glad, thanks!
Mate! After downloading this app the first question I put was also "What is the meaning of life?"
Haha that's amazing love it! 😄
After spending hours adding vocab to my original deck, not unable to find what I added. Guess can only make 30 cards per deck and must add new decks when want to add more vocab.
Hey, not sure what's going on but try the Browse feature to search for cards to find what you're looking for
Hi, I have some german cards which have german sentences, there are some words in these sentences i want to get translation in english, i added google translate and deep L add-on but when i right click selected text, i dont get any option to translate, also this dictionary add-on dont give accurate translation, is there a way i can get translation of selected text in anki
Hey there, I'm not too familiar with that add on feature but Anki (and web browsers) do have various possible add ons. Perhaps try the Anki forum for more guidance there and good luck!
Hi, Genevieve! I have a question regarding decks, cards and topics. Should i separate the decks for the languages i am learning like (Language 1 /Language 2/ Language 3) and create cards for each topic within these languages using tags to separate them or do like (Language 1 - topic n / Language 2 - topic n/ language 3 - topic n ) being one deck for each topic, for example "english - verb to be; english - asking for directions"?
Hello! I like to separate my decks by language. Then you could add tags to be able to sort by topic if you'd like
@@BreakOutandSpeak Thanks, i'll try to do that way.
Cool, enjoy 😎
Excellent guide, thank you.
Thanks, glad it was helpful!
So grateful for this video, it helped me to understand better how anki works. And I got a question : does anybody know whether it is possible to ad a sentence as an example of using certain word that needs to be memorised ? ) Would be obliged to answers )
I'm so glad to hear it was helpful! 😊 For sure, it's great to add a sentence of how to use the word. You can add a vocabulary card and then write an example sentence underneath the definition, or just have the example sentence be your question prompt as a way to remember the word too
A multi-million subs channel is in the way, please keep going!
You're the best, thank you for that! 😁
Are you going to make videos of yourself speaking in other languages you know?
Yeah! I have one out of me telling the story of how I learned Spanish but I also want to do a compilation video speaking a bit of all the languages I know
@@BreakOutandSpeak Awesome. Looking forward to them. Especially the Romance languages.
Happy to hear and thanks for the thought!
I have a question. I don't remember what I clicked, when I try to click on "show the answer," it doesn't show what I have written at the back, it just shows the one I have written in the front. What should I do about it? i wish i could put the screenshot here.
Hello, I'm not positive. Maybe edit a card (or create a new one) to double check you have the info entered the way you want it with the question on the top line and the answer on the bottom. When you click show answer it should reveal what you wrote on the bottom line
this must be the most disfunctional program I have EVER used!! it deletes the damn cards after seeing them!! what the hell's with that
Ah I see what you mean. Anki's system is to only to show you the cards that are due at that time and not again until you need them. You could always find the cards using the browse or filter features. Or go for Quizlet if you prefer to always have the cards there
@@BreakOutandSpeak thanks for the recommendation, Quizlet seems to be much more direct and dynamic!
Great video. Unlike many other RUclips videos, I was looking for something like this that wasn't so daunting. Your voice tone and presentation skills were pleasant to watch and kept my attention. Thank you!
Yay that's amazing to hear! 🙌 I'm very glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for letting me know 😁
For those looking to translate websites easily, Immersive Translate is the tool you need. It’s quick, accurate, and easy to use.
Thank you for such a great video!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for letting me know 😊
How does AnkiApp notify me that I have words to review?
Hey, on the right side next to each deck on the Home Screen you'll see the number of cards that are due to review that day
Hey, on the right side next to each deck on the Home Screen you'll see the number of cards that are due to review that day
@@BreakOutandSpeak Thank you for the reply! I created my first deck yesterday and reviewed it a couple of times. Perhaps, it’s still too soon, I’ll wait and see. At the moment, it just gives me a percentage and a letter grade.
@paololuckyluke2854 Ok enjoy! It might be soon but letter grade I'm not familiar with, maybe double check you have the same Anki app!
Thank you so much! I have heard the word, "Anki," but was not aware that it is exactly what I have been wanting to find, and evern better, it's free! I know I sound naive, but I'm an old timer who has studied 3 different languages in the past. ALL THE HARD WAY! I only found out about new concepts in language learnins a few years ago. I have used many flashcards but wished to find something like this. SO THANK YOU!!!
That's amazing, I'm glad the video was helpful! Thanks for sharing and happy language learning 😁
Great suggestion on using Assimil to learn two languages at once. I'm actually doing that now with Assimil Le Thaï.
Nice! Enjoy :)
Very good video. I had tried Anki before, but gave up for not knowing how it really worked. Your video showed me it's indeed a great app. Thank you so much !
Hey I'm so glad to hear that, thanks! Enjoy Anki :)
You dropped those books. Lmfao.
Haha yeah I think I was being a little ambitious there with trying to hold 4 of them 🙃
I downloaded the app in android, and I inported a deck for Chinese Language. I want to split the deck according to tags like Hsk1 to 6, how can I do that
Hey, I would likely search by tag and then just create new decks for each tag. From the desktop app is the easiest to search, select, and just drop cards into a new deck
Thank you very much, this video is absolutely the best guide Anki for beginners. I feel appreciated when I've found your video.
Hey I'm glad you found the video helpful! Thanks very much for letting me know 😊
This is the best beginner's guide I've seen, thanks! Also, the meaning of life is actually 42 ;)
Hey thank you very much! I'm glad the video was useful. Hahaha thanks for the inside secret about the meaning of life 😄

It takes EXACTLY 3 years, 4 months, 12 days, 3 hours, 2 minutes, 56 seconds to achieve fluency. Give or take a few microseconds.
Hehehe don't forget those seconds! 😆
I want to make a deck with Oxford's most common 3 tousand words. How can I add words to Anki? I know there are many shared decks in its website but they are not basic and I just want word-translation deck. So how should I go? Adding step by step or another way? Thank youuu
Hello! Some options for ya: - Use a shared deck and delete or ignore the parts you don't want (also sometimes different shared decks have different features) - Import from a text file like a CSV if it's easier - Add word manually as part of practicing them - Use a browser extension to allow you to create cards from webpages (although I haven't tried this last option yet) I'd likely import or use a shared deck, but it's your call! Happy language learning
Well done! I've just downloaded the app, and looking forward to upping my Korean level. Question: When adding tags, do you need to separate tags with commas, and is there a maximum number of tags that fit in the field?
Nice! Enjoy it. Hope it helps with your Korean. You can create separate tags just by writing a space, and Anki will create two separate tags. If you want a tag of multiple words for that one tag you can use an underscore, like this (example_tag). There is no explicit maximum number of tags!
@@BreakOutandSpeak Good to know. I've just cracked it (Anki) open. Shared decks a mixed bag, but I still appreciate that we have access to others' content. I think I need to create my own. It'll be a hurdle, for sure. Thanks for the quick reply. I've just dug in to a couple more of your videos. Best wishes!
Gracias por el video, fue un video excelente. I may actually try it out.
Muchas gracias! I'm glad the video was helpful. Enjoy the journey and happy language learning 😁
Before getting demotivated, I was using Busuu a lot for Japanese. I learned so much. I also love the fact that it gives you context to what something means. Of course its not perfect. Because later on in the Japanese course, the talking speed of the bot makes it where you simply can't understand. That was one reason why I kind of stopped. Although I'm doing it again
Hey thanks for sharing your experience! I'm glad that you learned a lot and enjoyed the context aspect. For vocab at least you can make it speak slower if you tap on where it says 1x on the other side of the play button. If you haven't already maybe try that!
thank you for this great vidéo , i hope that you will come back in this amazing channel as soon as possible , j'attend ton retour ..
Thank you so much for that! I appreciate your comment. I am glad you enjoyed the video and yes I will make more 😊
I would like to share my experience and add my two cents to it. I am currently learning Spanish (my 4th language) i find that the best way as you said is to find people who speak the target language and just try to have conversation/ interact with them. I'll use the same analogy of the gym, learning words without having real conversation is like learning about lifting theoretically without actually practising what you learn and put it to test. Also like learning musical notes without actually practicing playing an instrument. Language is just a tool to communicate rather than just knowledge. That's the reason why i find the most fun part about Duolingo is when you have to record your speaking, because it's the closest thing to having a conversation. Maybe they should develop an Ai bot that can mimic a conversation or make it possible to speak to others. In my case, I am very fortunate because my wife speaks Spanish (she learned it through Duolingo and Mexican series ) and I sometimes try to have natural conversation with her and she corrects me and I find that it's very efficient especially that she's a French teacher so she already has pedagogical knowledge. In fact the main reason I chose to learn Spanish is the fact that I will have someone to practice with on a daily basis. So it's like Spanish chose me 😂 also the fact that I know french, it helps tremendously.
Great content. I love youe channel. Keep it up 💪💯💯💯
Thanks so much! I appreciate that 😊
You
Great video!
Appreciate that, thank you! Glad you found it helpful 😊
Thank you! 🙏
Welcome! Glad the video was helpful 😊
Everybody keeps talking about the fact that Duolingo is free. I tried the free version and frankly I am astonished that anybody manages to make good use of their time. You get unreasonably punished for mistakes and spend most of your time looking at ads that take over your phone and blast the speaker unless you keep turning it down, then back up again to get back to some limited learning. The pay version seems okay.
A great Duolingo alternative or any other language learning app alternative just so happens to be Immersive Translate. Ever since I discovered it a few months ago, I use it to watch Netflix every day, which has really helped me become immersed in the language.
How about translating comments? Someone replied to comments I made, but it's in another language. Russian, I think.
Hey there, if you access RUclips through the app (or Chrome) if a comment is in a language that is different than your settings you should see "translate to English" under the comment. If not or in another browser if you copy and paste it into Google Translate it can detect and translate the language for you
@BreakOutandSpeak Thanks. I used to see "translate to English" under the comment, but for some reason it's not there anymore. I guess I'll try Google translate.
No prob 😎👍
fantastic
Thanks! I'm glad
Thank you for the video! It was very useful. I know Anki and use it, but I didn't know all those features. Gracias por el video, fue muy útil para mí. He usado Anki por uno años, pero no sabía que tenía esas opciones para crear Flashcards.
Hey that's great, I'm glad the video was useful! Thanks for letting me know :)
