Как учить этот список
Добавляйте по пять-шесть слов в день, а не все двенадцать сразу, оставляйте пример на карточке и повторяйте, когда придёт срок. WordNest распределяет каждое слово по семи растущим интервалам — в тот же день, затем 1, 3, 7, 14, 30 и 60 дней — чтобы список остался с вами и спустя месяцы. Прочитайте как работают интервальные повторения, если хотите понять логику этих чисел.
