In addition to the free features:
- Words are linked to the YellowBridge
Chinese English Dictionary for one-click access to word decomposition, character detail, character etymology, and animated stroke order (as available).
- Three additional modes:
- Word recall mode prompts
you using a combination of pinyin, English, and/or Chinese speech to test your ability
to recall Chinese characters. Recall requires a higher level of proficiency because it
requires you to be able to write the character, not just recognize it. A must have
for students who truly want to master writing, not just reading characters.
- Organize/print word list mode allows
you to view the words as a list and and generate a printable word list for offline study.
In conjunction with the Leitner system of flashcard review (see below), this mode can be
used either before or after a review session to adjust the word difficulty levels or to
omit a word from the list altogether.
- Print mode lets
you print hardcopy flashcards on perforated business card paper (or regular paper) for offline study.
- The flashcard word review modes (study, recognition, and recall) now include the widely recognized Leitner system of flashcard
review. This means that each flashcard is automatically ranked into three levels of difficulty,
on every session, based on the number of times you provide a correct or incorrect answer. Additionally,
when you use any of the word review modes, you can exclude words based on their difficulty level, thus greatly increasing your word review efficiency
and effectiveness, especially around exam time!.
- Word difficulty is maintained
in your personal word inventory and used across all flashcards. This means that a word's difficulty is consistent
even if you are studying from multiple textbooks or word lists. Separate difficulty levels
are maintained for the recognition and the recall modes.
- Words you had difficulties remembering can be saved
into a leftover pile and added to the next flashcard session. There is a separate pile for each book volume.
- Textbook lesson supplemental vocabularies are included.
- Intuitive keyboard shortcuts allow you to flip through the flashcards faster using just the arrow keys.
