I may eventually as well.īut I’m an extreme case. If you had been doing it for years, you may have already. But I forget stuff in my native language.Įventually you may want to delete the app. I do reviews maybe once a week now for about 10 minutes at a time. I haven’t added new cards in a long time.
If I quit Anki completely today, things wouldn’t change. To continue to review an old card, it may take you only a few seconds to keep it gone for decades. Don’t you want to bask in that moment? 6. I said the same thing when I reached my first 6 year interval, but here I am…Ĭatapulting your cards into oblivion feels like a final victory lap. To me that’s nearly never-will-see-again territory. Victory lapĪm I the only one who takes pleasure in seeing high intervals? I have cards now on 18 year intervals. Now that you review it at it’s original form, you can fix your current problem. But over time, it started to evolve into something wrong. But when you return to that card months or years later, you realize you were wrong.
And since that point have kept that understanding. Sometimes you think you understood something. Seeing the basics years later makes you gain new appreciation for it. But some of this understanding is shallow. Looking back at your progress helps you remember that your Japanese has improved significantly. When you are currently frustrated, hitting a hurdle, you lose sight of things and how far you’ve come. You remember where you were, what you were doing, and what your life was like. Reviewing old cards takes you back in time to when you first reviewed those cards. I’ve talked about how Anki is like time travelling. I find 6 reasons for not deleting old material, and letting it run its course. Even if you don’t ever see it in Anki again, you probably won’t forget it. With immersion, you indirectly review your Anki cards hundreds or thousands of times in different scenarios. There is a good chance you have already mastered it. When you finish that 1 year review, and the next time you’ll see it is in 3 years. You can expand the amount of time between reviews because that’s how your memory works. Your flow will not be interrupted.īut more importantly, Anki and its spaced repetition system magic work by continually increasing your intervals. This isn’t accidentally seeing English while you are in J-J mode. If you started studying J-E today, in 3 years do you really want to waste your time reviewing a こんにちは – Hello card?įirst, the fact that there is English shouldn’t concern you. Should you continue to review old material forever, or get rid of it eventually? In J-J, the goal is to remove English from your life completely, yet English will keep popping up for months and years to come through your reviews. More specifically, should you keep reviewing a kanji deck, or a J-E deck once you are already deep into J-J. Do you keep reviewing decks when they get old. While this day is far away, a more imminent question appears. Until you wake up one day fluent, and see 0 reviews due for weeks on end, and ponder whether you should delete the app from existence… Your goal is to continually push back all your cards further and further into some future void. One of the most interesting features of Anki is that the more you do it, the less you have to do it.
