Why your own French material beats a generic deck

Generic decks teach common words, but your quiz covers the vocabulary and grammar from your own class. The best French flashcards are the ones built from the chapter, handout or notes you are actually studying, so every card matches a test you will sit.

Cards reflect your teacher's vocabulary and chapter order.
Verb conjugations and gender rules get their own cards from your notes.
Spaced repetition brings back the cards you are about to forget.
Free plan to start, with no credit card needed.

Example French flashcards for beginners

How do you say good evening in French?Bonsoir. Use it from the late afternoon onward, while bonjour is for the earlier part of the day.

Passé composé of aller, je formJe suis allé(e). Aller takes être as its auxiliary, so the past participle agrees with the subject.

Present tense of avoir, nous formNous avons. Avoir is irregular, so it is worth drilling the full present tense as a set.

Partitive article for some water (de l'eau)De l'. Use du for masculine singular, de la for feminine singular, de l' before a vowel, and des for plural.

Verb form after Il faut queThe subjunctive, as in Il faut que tu fasses tes devoirs. The trigger phrase signals the subjunctive.

Review on a schedule

Work through the due cards each day and let spaced repetition decide what comes back next.

Frequently asked questions

How many French flashcards should I study at once?

Start with the vocabulary from a single lesson so reviews stay manageable. Add new cards when the due pile feels comfortable, since spaced repetition handles the timing for you.

What is the best way to memorize French verb conjugations?

Practice each form inside a short sentence and say it aloud, rather than memorizing isolated charts. Spaced repetition then brings back the forms you miss most often.

Can I export French flashcards to Anki?

Yes, on the Plus plan ($99.90/year or $9.99/month) you can export to Anki, along with PDF, DOCX and CSV. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.
