10,000 German Vocabulary (Part 3 of 3)

This deck contains 10,000 of the most common German vocabulary words, ranked in order from beginner to advanced. Each word comes with an example sentence and audio to help you build familiarity and recall words more easily. I created this deck in tandem with the German Language Pathway on the Natural Language Journey. You can find out more about how to learn German for free here.

If you are an absolute beginner in German, I recommend starting with this deck, as it covers A1-B1 in order.

Although I try my best to make sure there are no mistakes or strange sentences, sometimes things slip through. If you notice any mistakes, please feel free to contact me via the contact form on naturallanguagejourney.com

HOW TO USE This deck contains two types of cards to help you first build recognition of a word and then recall the word. The first type of card is a recognition card. It will show you a German word and an example sentence, and then ask you to translate it into English. You will grade yourself based on how easily you can recognize and understand the word.

The second type of card is a recall card, and it will ask you to recall the vocabulary word. You will be given an example sentence with the word removed and the English translation, then you can type the answer in the space provided.

Anki will show you if there are any omitted or extra letters in your answer, but you will still need to grade yourself. Although typing the words is optional, I still highly recommend it because it will improve your recall and thoroughly test your abilities.

Although this deck does not come with images, it does have a field where you can add your own images. Adding an image is great for words you struggle to remember, as it will create a visual association with the word. To add an image, click on "edit" in the bottom left corner of the screen, then copy and paste the image of your choice into the image field. When you're done, click "close" in the bottom right corner.

Now when you see this card again, it will have the image you added on it!

Hopefully, you enjoy this deck and find it to be a useful tool. For a detailed guide on how to use Anki to learn German, click here.
