User reviews

Just amazing…

What a pity I didn’t discover this app sooner, it would have saved me so much time… no more searching for the right Anki deck, looking up character etymologies on Wiktionary, or sentence-mining God knows what… this app really does it all, and it’s completely free
Update: after a long sessions, my eyes start to hurt. I hope you could make the font a bit larger, or at least allow users to adjust it

FAQ

What is the learning methodology behind Wordbrush?

Wordbrush utilizes the FSRS spaced repetition algorithm, a modern system that schedules reviews precisely when your brain is about to forget information. This ensures efficient long-term memory retention for HSK vocabulary.

Does Wordbrush offer audio for all vocabulary and example sentences?

Yes, Wordbrush provides natural HD audio for every word and example sentence. This includes studio-quality recordings rendered by Google's Chirp 3 HD voices to capture tones and prosody.

How does Wordbrush help with understanding Chinese characters?

Each character is decoded by its radicals, showing meaningful sub-components with pinyin and etymological notes. This approach helps users understand character construction rather than memorizing them stroke by stroke.
