German flashcards made from your own material

Most German courses hand out vocabulary lists, verb charts and grammar slides, and a German flashcard maker turns those into cards you can review on a schedule.

  • Cards for noun genders, plurals and the four cases
  • Verb conjugation drills, including separable prefix verbs
  • Vocabulary pulled from your own word lists and slides
  • Browser study on the free plan, with Anki export on Plus
Example German vocabulary and grammar flashcards
der Hundthe dog
Wie spät ist es?What time is it?
Which auxiliary verb does gehen take in the perfect tense?sein, as in ich bin gegangen (I went). Verbs of motion usually take sein.
Which article changes in the accusative case for masculine nouns?der becomes den, as in ich sehe den Hund (I see the dog), because the noun is the direct object.
Ich ___ um 7 Uhr ___ (aufstehen)stehe um 7 Uhr auf. In main clauses the separable prefix auf moves to the end.

Built from your material

Upload PDFs, PowerPoint decks, Word files, plain text notes or photos of textbook pages, and get cards that match what your instructor teaches.

Spaced repetition built in

Each card returns just before you would likely forget it, so vocabulary and grammar stick with less daily review time.

Quizzes and mind maps too

Switch to multiple choice, true or false, or short answer quizzes with explanations, or map a unit's topics as a mind map.

How it works

Upload your German material

Add a PDF, slides, a document, notes or a photo of a page from your textbook.

Generate your flashcards

DeckOwl reads the text and creates cards with German words on one side and meanings or grammar answers on the other.

Review on a schedule

Study in the browser every day, and let spaced repetition decide which cards come back next.

Upload a PDF, PowerPoint deck, DOCX file or plain text notes, or snap a photo of a textbook page and let text recognition read it. DeckOwl generates flashcards from that material, so the vocabulary, articles and cases match what your class actually covers.

Spaced repetition then brings each card back just before you would forget it. The free plan gives you 3 generations per month and browser study, while Plus adds unlimited generations and Anki or CSV export for people who already use those tools.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for a German vocabulary unit?

Most units work well with 20 to 40 cards grouped by theme, such as food, travel or family. Keep grammar cards for articles and verb forms separate so the vocabulary cards stay focused on meaning.

What is the best way to memorize German noun genders?

Learn each noun with its article, such as der Tisch or die Lampe, instead of memorizing the noun alone. Review those cards regularly, since spaced repetition helps the article stick to the word.

Can I export German flashcards to Anki?

Yes, Anki export is included in Plus, which costs $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.

Does it work with photos of German textbook pages?

Yes, images such as photos of pages are read with text recognition and turned into flashcards. Check the cards against the page, since recognition can miss accented letters or small print.
