In-Browser Mnemosyne Flashcards

Practice Luganda vocabulary directly in your browser with zero downloads or installation required. Built on active recall and spaced repetition principles, your progress and audio assets are automatically cached locally on your device.

How to Study

  1. Choose a Card Set: Select a vocabulary or grammar topic from the Mnemosyne Index.
  2. Active Recall: Look at the front prompt on the card and try to recall the Luganda word or translation before tapping.
  3. Flip & Listen: Tap or click anywhere on the card to flip it over. The answer will be revealed and audio pronunciation will play automatically (or click the 🔊 Listen button).
  4. Rate Your Recall (1–5): Once flipped, rate how easily you recalled the answer using the button bar at the bottom:
    • 1 - Forgot: Complete blank or wrong answer.
    • 2 - Hard: Remembered with significant effort.
    • 3 - Okay: Correct after brief hesitation.
    • 4 - Good: Correct with minimal effort.
    • 5 - Easy: Instant, perfect recall.
