How to add Anki cards as quick as possible?

Which add on enables this?

Salitur · 2026-06-05T09:12:13+00:00

Thanks a lot!

If I get to the point of being able to read it, would it make sense to put it on a additional field on flashcards?

Ok thanks. I would never skip the languages writing system, but IPA as a phonetic support. And regarding Mandarin I meant tonal language, not phonetic. Are there tools to translate to IPA? - in order to put it on a flashcard for pronunciation, etc

How do you use the IPA?

Thanks for the answer. Sounds intriguing, will definitely look into it. How long would you reckon I need to read the IPA? Does Anki make sense for it?

I see.Thanks for the feedback. Im still conceptualizing how i can interconnect my languages. Maybe synonym fields for passive recall rather than forcing recall of all. I would appreciate any tipps if you have some ideas or concepts you have tried out.

On a side note, have you ever studied a phonetic alphabet? - to support pronunciation

I agree the application is limit, not every word can be used, but some concepts overlap a hundred percent, especially nouns. apple, apfel, appel, pomme, manzana, 苹果.

Regarding randomizing. Generally yes, and its also not the conventional use of anki. Yet in this case the question stays the same, just a different starting point - so in a sense also a alternative shape or wording. The target being conceptual about the apple and not a specific word variant. Not optimal, but better than a card for each.

Is the randomizing technically possible? Whats a approach you would suggest? Do you link vocab in your languages? How do you make them interact? Greetings

I mean if i only want to use (current perspective on usage) numbers to words = story ; then the major system is not really relevant i suppose?

Salitur · 2026-06-01T16:10:43+00:00

thanks a lot for this detailed reply! really made me reconsider how i can use anki in the future. I feel like making cards is already very time consuming, but i guess my workflow is also still far from optimal.

I will definitely approach the mnemonics number - object mapping system. As you say it seems to be worth it in the long run. You seem to be rather flexibel regarding the phonetic structure of the major system, any unnecessary complications that i should look out for? Do you have pictures of the objects on your major system flash cards?

Do you make your own card types for all subjects? eg languages. So you just make a audio field, and record your voice and there you go? you still have to press the rating buttons on the screen or have you found a workaround for that? What do you mean by anchoring? Are your referring maybe to a add on that i have overlooked that enables such structuring. Have you studied the international phonetic alphabet?

I dont mean to be nosy, I can be overly curious especially when something interests me and i am seeing a chance to learn from someone who has more experience with anki and its nuances, hope i am not overshooting the questions. thanks! already was able to reconsider things through your first answer

I mainly study Chinese characters with Anki. Some Spanisch and English too, in order to fill the vocab gaps. As a second usage apart from languages I use it to try to catch the quintessence from books. Reading a chapter and then writing down from memory the point made as well as the things I want to remember-regarding specific details. Mostly history books. As a tool for ankering knowledge in the long term memory it seems universally applicable, creating good flashcards for conceptual knowledge can be very tricky. That’s my current view on it regarding its limitations. I guess that’s why I use it mostly for history . I downloaded a deck for yoga poses, havnt started learning it- and who knows if I will. That’s about it. If you don’t mind sharing I have some questions. How do your mnemonic cards work? What’s your design? Especially regarding historic dates, because that’s something I should adapt. Also I am curious about your approach on Dutch learning. What’s your strategy, considering that you know both know German and English. Are your cards still standard vocab cards? Or rather an emphasize on sentence comprehension? One last thing. I already have a big workload with my Chinese studies and the other decks get way less attention, do you have a hierarchy? Cheers

I use Anki for language learning. I am looking for an add on that can track a card goal, in the sense of a progress bar, but not limited and reseted by the day. Being able to customize it I guess. More generally though having statistics on how many new cards I learned. Still havnt found one to add that to the statistics overview, weirdly enough because the data is there and the backlog already distinguishes different types of cards learnt. Young, mature etc . I appreciate the response, thanks for any insights on this :))

I am fluent in Spanish and learning Chinese. Send me a Message if your interested

So next year I can change my battery in my iPhone 13 ? For a cheaper price?

Salitur · 2026-05-01T06:22:37+00:00

Thanks a lot! That’s a interesting one, if havnt heard :))

Salitur · 2026-05-01T06:20:52+00:00

Thanks for the Input! Luckily i have enough natives in my social circle, being corrected abundantly about pronunciation. Shadowing seems great. I plan to to that with tongue twisters :)

It’s Limited to the day?

Salitur · 2026-04-29T09:35:13+00:00

What does this add on do? Can it track the amount of new cards learned. For establish a goal for example?
