Example of use : When memorizing "Word" In 1st cycle: Record its natures such as "related to many people" or "numerous". In 2nd cycle: Later recall the meaning based on the recorded natures. This is a word application where you record the natures of a word and use them as clues to remember its meaning. The concept of this application is based on the hypothesis that when you memorize a word, it may be easier to remember the meaning if you are aware of the various natures of the word. This app is not so much about memorizing a lot of words as it is about studying how to memorize words. [The words included in the app] There are about 50 difficult English words, Scrutinize, Exacerbate, and so on. This app is a study of how to memorize words, so it contains mostly words whose meanings are not well known. [The natures included in the app] About 40 natures are prepared in advance. "Bad/good," "It contains no feelings/contains feelings," etc. [You can create your own words and natures] There is a limit to the number of words and natures you can create, but the limit can be removed with in-app purchases. This application is designed for Japanese speakers to learn English words. However, you can use it in the same way if you create your own words and meanings according to your native language and the language you are learning.
