    Frequently Asked Questions

    What body and health words will I learn?
    The deck covers the main body parts (head, hand, arm, leg, and so on) along with health words you need to describe pain, illness, and seeing a doctor. These are the German words that matter most when something is wrong and you have to explain it.
    Are the body part nouns shown with their article?
    Yes. Each noun comes with its article (der, die, or das), since the gender is part of the word. Learning der Kopf rather than just Kopf means you have the gender right from the start.
    How does the practice stay efficient?
    You rate each card after flipping it. Hard cards come back sooner and easy cards wait longer, so you spend your time on the words you have not learned yet. Signed-in users keep their progress saved.
    Where is the full body and health word list?
    The complete health and body page lists every word with plural forms and example sentences. These flashcards are the practice version of that list.
