How to study Spanish ab initio vocabulary and grammar with flashcards
Students in an IB Spanish ab initio course often need hundreds of vocabulary items and verb forms by mock exam time, and Spanish ab initio flashcards work best when they come from the material your teacher actually uses.
- Use the Spanish side as the prompt for recall and the English side for production practice.
- Make one card per verb form when learning preterite or present tense irregulars.
- Review cards daily in short sessions rather than one long session before a test.
- Add a card for each gender exception, such as el mapa or el problema, the way it appears in your notes.
Built from your material
Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes, or photos of pages and get cards drawn from your own vocabulary lists and grammar notes.
Spaced repetition
Cards return at the intervals your memory needs, so verb conjugations and gender rules stick before the next test.
Anki and CSV export
Plus users can export to Anki or CSV. The free plan lets you study in the browser without a credit card.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add a PDF of a unit, a set of slides, or a photo of handwritten vocabulary.
Review the cards
Check each generated front and back and remove anything that does not match your syllabus.
Study on schedule
Work through due cards each day. Spaced repetition brings back the items you miss.
Keep each card to one idea: a single vocabulary item, one verb form, or one gender rule. Put the Spanish on the front when you want to practice recall, and the English on the front when you need to produce the Spanish phrase.
A generic deck will not cover the topics your class is assessed on. Cards built from your own unit notes make it easier to see gaps and focus review time where it counts.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for Spanish ab initio?
There is no fixed number. Start with the vocabulary and grammar in one unit, then add cards as new topics appear in class. Smaller, current sets are easier to keep up with than one large deck.
What makes a good Spanish ab initio flashcard?
A good card tests one fact, such as a verb form, a vocabulary item, or a rule like when to use ser or estar. Include a short example sentence on the back when the meaning depends on context.
Can I export my flashcards to Anki?
Yes. Export to Anki is available on the Plus plan at $39 per year or $7.99 per month. The free plan lets you study the cards in the browser, with 3 generations per month.
