Ultimate Spanish Conjugation (Lisardo's KOFI Method)

Language/Spanish

What is the KOFI Method? KOFI (Konjugation First is the name I've given to a provocative language-learning approach I've created: to learn all the forms of a language's conjugation before even starting to formally study the language. Also available for:

  • Italian
  • French (coming soon, ETA September 2023)

To use this deck optimally, YOU MUST READ THE MANUAL

The FIRST SEVEN CARDS are an orientation. Do them first: Custom Study → Increase today's new card limit → 7

In eight months, learn to conjugate Spanish verbs in all tenses, from the present to the subjunctive past — all these tenses are used in Spanish, you cannot afford blind spots.

This is a state-of-the-art deck driven by thousands of lines of code. Check it out, it's one of a kind.

  • Acquiring proper conjugation quickly is a superpower
  • You can even use this deck BEFORE you formerly start studying Spanish
  • The deck contains 72 carefully-selected verbs, the conjugations match those of the DLE (not computer-generated!)
  • Irregular verbs follow patterns: sample verbs in the deck cover all irregular conjugation patterns found in Spanish

This is a carefully-designed deck, crafted and debugged with care over weeks of development, and driven by thousands of line of Python code. To get the most benefit, it's essential that you read the manual, in particularly:

  1. the part about verbal and visual cues
  2. the guide to pace the study

This deck was inspired by my own KOFI Method deck for Italian: Ultimate Italian Conjugation
