Shakespeare Flashcards

Learn the words English actually runs on. Every card in this deck is drawn from the 1,000 highest-ranked content words in the Corpus of Contemporary American English, a one-billion-word corpus balanced across spoken English, fiction, magazines, newspapers, academic writing, TV and film subtitles, blogs and the web. If a word is in here, you will meet it constantly. HOW IT WORKS - Tap a card to flip between the word and its definition. - Sort each word into Known or Learning with one tap. - Swipe left to right to undo a decision you did not mean to make. - Open either list to read every word and definition in one scrollable page. WHAT IS ON A CARD - The word. - A plain-English definition from Princeton's WordNet. - Its part of speech: noun, verb, adjective or adverb. - How many times it occurs in the corpus, so you can see what "frequent" actually means. BUILT FOR STUDY - Works completely offline. No account, no sign-up, no network. - Nothing is collected about you. Your progress stays on your device. - Your Known and Learning lists are saved between sessions. Sources are credited inside the app under the "?" button.
