This resonates with me. I feel like I'm on the slower end. A lot of people on the internet love sentence cards for vocabulary but they take me so much longer than just word/definition cards...



Sentence cards are great and necessary for learning grammar (during which you will learn some vocab too). After that can just focus on pure vocab.

I did the exact same Korean deck as my wife at the exact same time. It was wild comparing our stats in real-time. It would take me 10 ~ 12 seconds to do the same sentences that it would take her 30 ~ 35 seconds.
