How it works

Simple on purpose.

Pick a bucket, then a set

Words are grouped from Highest frequency to Hard advanced. Inside each, sets of 20. Start with the highest-frequency words and work up.

Got it or missed it

See a word, think of the meaning, then reveal it. Two buttons: you knew it, or you didn't. That's the whole thing.

Miss it, it comes back

A word you miss goes to the back of the line and shows up again. You finish a set only when you've gotten every word right.
