## What is Nick's Language Cards?

Master any language with Nick's Language Cards - the beautiful, effective flashcard app powered by scientifically-proven spaced repetition.

WHY SPACED REPETITION WORKS

Based on the Forgetting Curve research, Nick's Language Cards schedules reviews at precisely the right moments to maximize retention. Words move through 6 carefully designed stages:

• Stage 1: Review immediately (new words)
• Stage 2: Review after 1 day
• Stage 3: Review after 3 days
• Stage 4: Review after 7 days
• Stage 5: Review after 14 days
• Stage 6: Review after 30+ days (mastered!)

This intelligent scheduling means you spend time on words you're about to forget, not words you already know.
