    Frequently Asked Questions

    What work and education words will I learn?
    The deck covers professions and jobs in German, along with words for school, study, and the workplace: the teacher, the office, the exam, and the rest of the words you need to talk about what you do. These come up whenever someone asks about your work or studies.
    Are the 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 die Arbeit rather than just Arbeit 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 your time goes to the words you have not learned yet. Signed-in users keep their progress between sessions.
    Where is the full work and education word list?
    The complete work and education page lists every word with example sentences. These flashcards are the practice version of that list.
