How to build a study set for N'Ko

Good N'Ko flashcards start with the material you already have. Your teacher's handout, a photo of the chart on the board, or a set of typed vocabulary lists can all become cards in a few minutes.

  • Put the letter shape on one side and the sound on the other before adding vocabulary.
  • Review new letters daily for a short session rather than one long weekly cram.
  • Check tone marks and right-to-left reading order on any card that looks unclear.
  • Keep your original handout open so you can correct any card the AI misread.

Works from your material

Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of handwritten or printed pages. Text in images is read with text recognition.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards you miss come back sooner and cards you know come back later, so letter shapes and vocabulary stick with less rereading.

Quizzes and mind maps too

Turn the same lesson into multiple choice, true or false, or short answer quizzes with explanations, or map how letters and sounds connect.

How it works

Upload your lesson

Add a PDF, slide deck, text notes or a photo of your N'Ko worksheet. No credit card is needed to start.

Review the generated cards

Check the question and answer pairs, edit anything that looks off, and keep the ones that match your course.

Study on a schedule

Work through cards in the browser each day. Spaced repetition decides what comes back next.

Keep each card to one idea. A letter card might show the symbol on the front and its sound and name on the back, while a vocabulary card might show a Manding word and its meaning. Smaller cards are easier to review in short sessions.

Study a few new cards each day instead of a long batch once a week. Repeated short reviews are what move letter shapes from recognition into reading.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for learning the N'Ko alphabet?

Start with 10 to 15 letters per session, focusing first on the ones that appear most often in your lessons. Add vocabulary once the basic shapes feel familiar.

Which direction is N'Ko written in, and how should I study that?

N'Ko is written from right to left, so read your cards in that direction when you practice. If you want a transliteration too, keep it on the back of the card so you can check your reading.

Can I export N'Ko flashcards to Anki or PDF?

Yes, the Plus plan includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export. The Free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.

Is spaced repetition included on the free plan?
