How French vocabulary flashcards for Anki work
French vocabulary flashcards for Anki work best when they come from the words your class actually uses, not a generic list. DeckOwl builds them from your own vocabulary sheet, chapter notes or textbook PDF, so each card matches the unit you are studying.
- Front shows the French word, back shows the English meaning and gender
- Cards you miss return sooner through spaced repetition
- Photos of printed or handwritten word lists are read with text recognition
- Export to Anki is included on Plus at $39 per year or $7.99 per month

Spaced repetition built in
Cards you miss come back sooner, so new French words move into long-term memory instead of fading after one review.
Export to Anki
Plus includes Anki export along with PDF, DOCX and CSV, so your deck works alongside the Anki app you already use.
How it works
Add your word list
Upload a PDF, slide deck, notes file or a photo of your vocabulary sheet.
Generate the cards
DeckOwl creates front and back cards from your French terms and their English meanings.
Study or export
Review in the browser with spaced repetition, or export to Anki on the Plus plan.
Spaced repetition then schedules reviews so words you find hard appear more often, while the ones you know get longer gaps. For French, cards work better when nouns show their article (le, la, l') and irregular verbs such as être and avoir are kept as full entries.
Free accounts can study in the browser with 3 generations per month. Plus adds unlimited generations and Anki export if you want the same deck in your Anki app.

Frequently asked questions
How many French vocabulary words should I put in one flashcard deck?
Most learners do well with 20 to 40 new words per session, so split a long unit list into smaller decks. Spaced repetition will then bring back the harder words more often.
Should French noun flashcards include the article?
Yes, include le, la or l' with the noun, because the article shows gender and affects agreement. Writing un or une next to the noun also helps you remember it.
Can I export my French flashcards to Anki?
Yes, export to Anki is included on the Plus plan at $39 per year or $7.99 per month. The free plan lets you study in the browser with 3 generations per month.
Do I need a credit card to try it?
No, you can start on the free plan without a credit card. Students get 40% off with a school email.
