FlashCards
The face of a card shows the source word translation/definition, and the reverse side
shows the source word. The player browses the cards and, whenever necessary, uses a
hint.
The goal is to learn all cards in the set. You will be prompted to proceed to the next set
once you have finished the current one.
The number of unlearned cards in a set is recorded for each game. This information is
displayed on the screen. For example,
Words left: 10
means you have 10 cards
remaining unlearned.

Pockets
This is a traditional game targeting in-depth word learning. In this game, the same cards
as those used in the
FlashCards
game are divided into 4 groups (4 pockets). At the
beginning of the game all cards are located in the first pocket. You turn the cards one by
one and, if you know the hidden source word, put the card in the second pocket. Keep
browsing until all the cards from the first pocket are moved to the second pocket.
At the second stage you move the cards to the third pocket and, again, if you know the
hidden source word, put the card in the next pocket. The goal is to move all cards to the
fourth pocket. You will direct most of your effort at learning difficult words, while simple
words will shortly jump to the fourth pocket.
