I've been using Anki for around two years to learn Arabic vocabulary. It's an excellent tool that has helped me remember and continuously recall thousands of words. Some strategies I've found particularly effective are:
- Focusing on memorizing short sentences or phrases instead of isolated words.
- Regularly adding new words, at least weekly, to keep the learning process engaging and not monotonous.
- Including only words that I actually come across and learn in my daily life, which significantly aids in retention—possibly because I can recall the context in which I first heard them.
- Installing AnkiDroid on my phone to make the most of idle times like commuting or waiting in lines for practice.
