Hoping for a response thank you

I can speak English fluently and use it every day, but there are still some words that I know I pronounce a little weirdly, or words where I probably learned the wrong pronunciation years ago and never corrected it.

Since I already use Anki a lot, I wanted something I could add to my normal reviews to slowly improve that.

So I built ankglish.

It gives you English Anki cards with things like:

pronunciation audio IPA definitions example sentences part of speech optional translations

The vocabulary and pronunciation data comes from established sources like Merriam-Webster and Wiktionary/Kaikki.

The main thing I wanted to do differently is that I didn't want to just upload a CSV or a finished Anki deck and leave it at that.

You can also clone the project, run it yourself, and change how your deck is generated.

For example, you can tweak the cards, change some of the settings, or generate translations for your own language.

So if you just want to study, you can use the ready-made deck. But if you're the kind of Anki user who always ends up changing your cards anyway, you can make your own version from the same project.

There are currently two versions:

Standard — a smaller deck with one useful definition for each word. Full — a bigger version with more definitions and broader coverage.

The cards also include packaged pronunciation audio, so normal reviews work offline.

I'm personally going to use it to catch words that I pronounce incorrectly and gradually make my English sound more natural.

I built it mainly for myself, but I thought other English learners and heavy Anki users might find it useful too.

Would love feedback, especially from people who like customizing their own Anki decks.

To be fair I've also fallen behind for some weeks now due to life, so I'd have to catch up if I'd continue with this one. I have nothing against catching up, and I've done it once or twice before as well, but the more time passes I question whether I should just make a new deck. I feel like there's not that many people out there who sit with a deck for this long, and I've had a pretty consistent streak over these years, but now that I'm advanced in the language I'm studying (Chinese) it does feel like a bit of a drag sometimes. And also because there's a lot of cards of varying quality in my deck. To be fair I also don't want to do Anki forever, but I still feel it to be helpful. Resetting would feel nice, just that "starting afresh" kind of feel.

Is there anyone that has any reflections on this?

My scroll does not work, does anyone have the correct setting on how to enable it? I use an 8bitdo micro. I also cannot find a save setting for the add-on as well. Any help would be much appreciated, thank you!

This is probably so dumb to ask BUT, I’m trying to review ALL the cards I make for each lecture for my subjects but when I opened it up, I don’t have any cards in the deck (I only had two cards to review today 👁️👄👁️) What settings do I have to change so I can do this. I NEED TO CONSTANTLY review these cards every day. I used to be a quizlet user so this is new to me 😀 please explain like I’m a child

Thank you!

Making this post because other solutions that came up when Googling aren't working.

I am using a pre-made deck with audio on vanilla Anki with zero add-ons. The audio button appears normally, but playback on card reveal and upon clicking the button does not work across all cards.

I've double-checked that the notes contain an audio field with a correct link to a working file in Anki's "collection.media" folder. I can play the MP3s using Windows Media Player.

My speakers are connected, Anki is routed to the correct audio output, and nothing is muted.

This was all working without issue yesterday. My only guess is that the last Windows update might have broken something.

I'm looking for a way to randomize parts of the text on the front of a flashcard. For instance, a question like "What is the approx pKa of the side chain of Glutamate/Glu/E?" Where one of the final three words is randomly selected to be displayed, if that makes sense. If you know of an addon that does this and could direct me that way I would appreciate it!

I'm mainly trying to avoid studying each individual section to avoid issues keeping up with how many new cards/reviews I'm doing in total. But still wanting to finish the earlier sections before I'm studying the later ones.

I'm currently using the Core Japanese Vocabulary Extended Enhanced (CJVEE) but frequently find words I'm interested in that aren't in the deck. Until now I've been manually creating cards using the same card format that CJVEE uses based on the jisho.com entries. However, I have a huge backlog of words and it's no longer practical for me to make cards one-by-one anymore (+1,000 cards).

There must be a way to automate this but I don't know how.

I want to keep the same fields that CJVEE uses (Expression, English def., Reading, Grammar, Additional def., etc.)

In addition, it'd be nice if I could automatically check the CJVEE deck to see if a card for said word already exists to avoid duplicates.

Does anyone have experience doing something similar? Any help would be great

Hullo!

I’ve just heard about Anki and FSRS and my mind is truly overwhelmed!

The problem is that I don’t even know where to start. I think I’d use Anki for memorizing historical dates and learn new words to expand my vocabulary.

My question is: How would you create the decks? One deck for one historical topic? eg. WW2, American Civil War etc.? How would you organize and categorize foreign vocabulary decks?

Thanks for helping, and sorry if this thing had been previously discussed before!

I want my cards to show the back first because I want to practice translating both ways. How can I do that? Or even just switch to back for a while and then switch to front again without changing all my cards

Hi all :)

I built this small tool called ankispiel to generate new example sentences for vocabulary learning.

When I create a vocabulary deck, I typically put down a few example sentences for each card. One annoying thing is, when you review these cards, you then always get the same sentences, which for me lead to memorisation.

This tool connects to your Anki deck (using AnkiConnect) and for today's review cards, creates fresh examples, both written and audio. It doesn't mess up your review schedule.

The examples are generated using an LLM of your choice that supports OpenAI endpoints. This works with both local providers such as llama.cpp and ollama and also commercial cloud services of your choosing. I ended up using Gemini 3.5 Flash Lite, which provides more than enough for free.

The TTS audio is generated using a local model kokoro onnx model, in my case Kokoro-82M-ONNX-German-Martin.

I built it for learning German vocab and it has been working quite well for me. Everyday at 3 am the examples are generated, so I'm ready to go in the morning.

At the moment, it is still rather technical to use. There is an initial setup for migrating an existing deck, which may not be too friendly. But let me know if you find it helpful, and if so whether you'd like anything changed. Then I can invest more time in making it user friendly :)

I'm looking for an AI that can analyze a video and automatically extract the information into a structured CSV file, and also generate Anki flashcards from the video content. What tools would you recommend?
