Kuidas seda loendit õppida

Lisa viis-kuus sõna päevas, mitte kõik kaksteist korraga, hoia näitelause kaardil ja korda siis, kui aeg käes. WordNest jaotab iga sõna seitsmele kasvavale intervallile — samal päeval, siis 1, 3, 7, 14, 30 ja 60 päeva — nii et loend on sinuga ka kuude pärast. Loe kuidas hajutatud kordamine toimib, kui tahad nende arvude põhjendust.
