Why a custom deck beats a generic French word list

French vocabulary flashcards work best when they match the words your class actually uses. A generic list may skip the terms in your textbook chapter or your teacher's handout, so building cards from your own material keeps practice aligned with what you will be tested on.

  • Put the article on nouns, such as le, la or les, so gender is learned with the word.
  • Use the source sentence from your notes as a clue on the front of the card when the word is ambiguous.
  • Review new words the same day you meet them, then let the schedule space out the repeats.
  • Mix in verbs and their infinitive forms so you can recognize conjugated verbs later.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards you miss come back sooner and cards you know come back less often, so new French words move into long-term memory.

Review on a schedule

Study a short session each day. The spaced repetition schedule decides which words you see next.

Spaced repetition handles the memorization side. Instead of reviewing the whole list every time, the schedule brings back the French words you are about to forget, which keeps sessions short and steady.

Keep each card to one French word or phrase on the front and the meaning on the back. If a word has gender or an irregular form, add it to the card so you learn the full entry, not just the translation.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I review French vocabulary flashcards?

Short daily sessions work better than long weekly ones for vocabulary. Spaced repetition then schedules each card based on how well you recalled it.

Should French vocabulary cards include example sentences?

Yes, a short example sentence helps you see how the word is used, including gender and word order. Keep the sentence on the back of the card with the translation.

Can I export my French flashcards to Anki?

Yes, Anki export is included in the Plus plan, which costs $39 a year or $7.99 a month. The free plan lets you study the cards in the browser without exports.

Is there a free plan for French vocabulary flashcards?

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study. No credit card is needed to start, and students with a school email get 40% off Plus.
