The problem

Reading isn't learning

You download a list. You read it once. You nod. A week later, you can't remember a single phrase.

That's not a memory problem. It's a method problem. You remember language you use, not language you read. So I turned my 50-phrase guide into something you actually do: guess, check, get it wrong, try again.

What you get

Learn it. Test it. Say it.

Flashcards

Each phrase with a clear meaning and a real-life example. Tap to flip, check yourself, move on.

Quick tests

Ten questions per set. Fill the gap in a new sentence, so you prove you can use the phrase, not just recognize it.

Speaking challenges

After each set, a short challenge to use the phrases out loud. That's where they start to stick.
