How typing works

Type the answer, then press Enter or tap Check. Small typos, missing accents, capitals and number formats still count.

A forgiven typo shows the right spelling, fixed letters underlined. Another number, a missing item or a different name is Not quite.

In a French, Spanish or Italian chapter, leave out the article (la, el, il) and it shows as Close: it counts as Knew it, but the card won't be spaced out further.

Stuck? Hint gives a clue, More help the first letter: both free, but the card then won't be spaced out. Learn more tells you more about the answer.

Think the check got it wrong? Tap I was right and it counts as Knew it; Undo changes it back until you go on. Otherwise Not quite, or a shown answer, counts as Didn't and comes back a few cards later, until you know it.

On a keyboard, Enter checks, then Enter again goes on. Holding Enter never skips a card.

Auto types only cards you know well, at most 5 a Zap; Type types every card, new ones too. Cards that can't be typed fairly stay Quick Pick. Pick your style in Settings.
