Online Vocabulary Flashcards

Online vocabulary flashcards help you study English words and their meanings. Flip each card to view the definition, part of speech, and an example sentence.

Flashcards can make vocabulary study more active by asking you to recall a word's meaning before checking the answer. Regular review can also help reinforce words over time.

Study a manageable number of words, try to recall each meaning before flipping the card, listen to the pronunciation, and use difficult words in your own sentences. Revisit words you find difficult during later study sessions.

Review difficult words at increasing intervals rather than studying them only once. For example, revisit them later the same day, the next day, and again later in the week.

Open the full dictionary entry, read the examples, say the word aloud, and write your own sentence with it. Return to the card during a later study session.
