Where do the 500 words come from? Is this a real frequency list?

Yes. The list is hand-picked from four public, named sources: the Goethe-Institut "Wortliste Start Deutsch 1 / A1" and the Goethe-Zertifikat A2 word list (both official PDFs on goethe.de), the DWDS Kernkorpus frequency data from the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences (dwds.de), and Jones & Tschirner's "A Frequency Dictionary of German" (Routledge 2006) top-500. Articles (der / die / das) and plural forms come straight from Duden Online — the authoritative German reference dictionary. We dropped pure function-word noise (und, dass, the bare article der) because beginners can't build a sentence around "dass" — they need concrete vocabulary. The 500 we kept are the words that A1-A2 textbooks (Menschen A1+A2, Schritte plus, Studio d) all ship with in their first six chapters. No LLM-invented entries; if any entry feels off, file an issue with a Duden reference and we'll fix it.

Why 500 words and not 3 000? German has compound words for everything.

Because the first 500 lemmas cover roughly 65% of spoken German token frequency (per DWDS and Jones & Tschirner). The next 500 add another 10%, and word 2 001 is below 0.02% — at that point your time is better spent on input than on flashcards. The honest path is: finish these 500, then watch 50 hours of comprehensible German (Easy German, Slow German, Nicos Weg from Deutsche Welle) before you reach for word 600. German loves long compound nouns (Donaudampfschifffahrts- gesellschaftskapitän), but those decompose into pieces you already know — Donau + Dampf + Schiff + Fahrt + Gesellschaft + Kapitän — so a strong 500-word base unlocks 5 000+ compounds. This tool is the realistic A2 vocabulary so you can start consuming real German; it is not a substitute for input.

The audio — is it a real German voice or robot?

It's your operating system's built-in German text-to-speech voice, routed through the browser's Web Speech API. macOS ships Anna (Germany) and Markus (Germany) — both natural. Windows uses Hedda / Stefan / Katja from Microsoft. Linux falls back to espeak which is robotic; install mbrola-de4 / mbrola-de6 for a major upgrade. We don't ship our own audio files because (a) 100 words × MP3 would balloon the page past the 28 KB budget, and (b) your OS voices are already near-broadcast quality and free. For nouns we ask the TTS to read the article + noun together ("der Hund", "die Katze") because that's how German children learn the gender and how your ear will remember it. To switch between German and Austrian / Swiss accents, change your OS default voice — the tool just forwards whatever de-DE / de-AT / de-CH voice you have.

Why is der / die / das color-coded on every noun?

Because German gender cascades. "Der große schwarze Hund" (the big black dog, masc) vs "die große schwarze Katze" (the big black cat, fem) vs "das große schwarze Pferd" (the big black horse, neut) — the article AND the adjective endings all change with the noun's gender, and they change again in accusative / dative / genitive case. Get the gender wrong and you mis-decline three other words in the same sentence. There are no reliable shortcuts: "Mädchen" (girl) is neuter, "Sonne" (sun) is feminine, "Mond" (moon) is masculine — biology doesn't help. The only safe strategy is to learn gender at the same time as the word, with a visual anchor. We use the standard color convention many German textbooks use: blue for der, red for die, green for das. After 100 words your visual memory does the heavy lifting.

Why include the plural form for every noun?

Because German plurals are not regular. English just adds "-s" (cats, dogs). German has seven plural patterns: -e (Hund → Hunde), -er (Kind → Kinder), -(e)n (Frau → Frauen), umlaut alone (Vater → Väter), umlaut + -er (Buch → Bücher), umlaut + -e (Apfel → Äpfel), and -s for loanwords (Auto → Autos). There is no reliable shortcut for which pattern a given noun takes — you have to memorize it with the word, which is why Duden lists the plural in every noun entry and why we ship it on every noun card.

Can I focus on just nouns, verbs, adjectives, or conjunctions?

Yes. Use the Study focus chips for the German-specific pain points: "Articles" shows only nouns with der / die / das and plurals, "Verb forms" shows verbs with Präsens and past-tense blocks, and "Connectors" pulls the B1 sentence linkers such as weil, deshalb, trotzdem, aufgrund, einerseits, and andererseits. Under that, the part-of-speech chips still let you isolate nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, or interjections. Study focus, topic categories, part of speech, search, favorites, missed-word review, and flashcards all stack, so you can drill only transport article nouns, only B1 connectors, or only food adjectives without losing your progress.

What are the study decks, and which one should I start with?

The deck chips split the expanded corpus into practical study runs. "First 100" is the survival backbone: greetings, numbers, time, family, food, colors, animals, and the first everyday verbs. "Core 500" is the A1-A2 base that gets you through normal beginner situations. "B1 bridge" adds the newer abstract verbs, connectors, work, digital, health, and nature words that make the list useful beyond tourist German. "Verb drill" pulls every verb into one conjugation-focused run, and "Travel day" gathers transport, time, food, and weather so you can rehearse a realistic day out. Decks combine with search, categories, part-of-speech chips, favorites, missed-word review, and flashcards, so you can narrow a deck further without losing your progress.

Why are strong verb stem changes shown (du isst, er sieht, du fährst)?

Because German strong verbs change their stem vowel in the du and er/sie/es forms of the present tense, and this is where A1 learners trip first. "Essen" (to eat) is regular everywhere except: ich esse / du ISST / er ISST / wir essen / ihr esst / sie essen. Same for "sehen" (du SIEHST, er SIEHT), "fahren" (du FÄHRST, er FÄHRT), "sprechen" (du SPRICHST, er SPRICHT), "geben" (du GIBST, er GIBT). If you only learn the infinitive you'll say "du esse" and natives will smile at you. The full 6-person table on every verb card means you see the irregularities the first time, not the tenth.

Can I quiz myself the hard way — meaning → German — not just German → meaning?

Yes. Open Flashcards and use the "Recall direction" toggle. "DE → meaning" (the default) shows the German word and asks you to recall what it means — that's recognition, the easy direction. "meaning → DE" shows only the English or Chinese meaning and asks you to produce the German word, its der / die / das, and the spelling before you flip the card — that's production, and it's the direction that actually builds speaking ability. Recognition lets you fool yourself: you see "Hund", think "dog", and feel fluent. Production is honest — if you can't say "der Hund" with the right article from a cold "dog" prompt, you don't own the word yet. The play button and IPA stay hidden in production mode until you reveal, so the audio can't give the answer away. Drill the easy direction first to learn, then switch to meaning → DE to test whether it stuck. Your score counter works in both directions.

Does it remember which words I keep missing, or do I start from scratch every time?

It remembers. Flashcards use a five-level Leitner system: every word starts at level 0 (never drilled). Tap "Got it" and the word climbs one level; miss it and tap "Again" and it drops straight back to level 1. When you open Flashcards the deck is re-sorted weakest-first — brand-new and recently-missed words come up before ones you've nailed, and a word you've gotten right five times in a row is "mastered" and sinks to the back so you stop wasting reps on it. The dots above each card show its level, the header shows how many of the 500 you've mastered, and "Reset progress" wipes the boxes if you want a clean slate. This is the same spaced-repetition idea behind Anki and Leitner paper boxes — you spend your time on the 40 der/die/das you keep blanking on, not the 460 you already own. Progress lives in this browser's localStorage, on this device only — nothing is uploaded, no account, and it is never written into the URL, so a shared link can't leak what you're still struggling with.

Why ship Präteritum + Perfekt + Partizip II on every verb?

Because German uses three past forms and you need all three: Präteritum (er ging, er sah) dominates written narrative — news, novels, fairy tales, a Sherlock-Holmes translation — and you'll trip on every page if you only know Präsens. Perfekt (er ist gegangen, er hat gesehen) dominates spoken German — friends, podcasts, Tagesschau interviews — and is the form you'll actually produce daily. Partizip II is the building block of Perfekt, Plusquamperfekt, Passiv, and the adjective participle ("der gekaufte Apfel"). The fork that trips A2 learners is the auxiliary: most verbs take "haben" (er hat gegessen), but motion / state-change verbs take "sein" (er ist gegangen, er ist geworden) — and there's no rule, you memorize per verb. We encode this on every verb: Präteritum 3rd-singular (the form you'll see in print), aux (haben / sein, with motion + state-change verbs flagged sein), and Partizip II — including the three pesky prefix rules: separable verbs put ge- in the middle (aufstehen → aufgestanden), inseparable prefixes (be- / ver- / er- / ent- / zer-) drop ge- entirely (verkaufen → verkauft, bekommen → bekommen), and -ieren verbs also drop ge- (telefonieren → telefoniert). All three rules are baked in correctly — no LLM-guessed forms.

Prep for the Goethe-Zertifikat A2 oral exam in two weeks

Your "Fit in Deutsch 2" speaking test is in 14 days and you keep blanking on der/die/das. Star the 60 nouns you miss most, drill them with the article read aloud ("der Bahnhof", "die U-Bahn"), and the color anchor sticks the gender. Cover food, transport, and daily-life cards first — those three topics feed straight into the "Über mich" exam prompts.

Read your first Tagesschau article without drowning in past tense

You can speak Präsens but every news sentence is Präteritum (ging, sah, war, hatte) and you stall. Open the 80 verb cards, read only the Präteritum 3rd-singular column, and quiz the 20 highest-frequency verbs. After an hour "er ging zum Bahnhof" parses instantly instead of sending you to a dictionary.

Survive your first week living in Berlin

You land with zero German and need 100 words to eat, ride, and ask for help by Friday. Run the greetings, numbers, food, and transport categories, use the TTS button on the train so you hear "einsteigen / umsteigen / aussteigen" before the U-Bahn announcement does. Star the 30 words you used today and review them on the ride home.

Drill strong-verb stem changes before a placement test

A placement test will dock you for "du esse" and "er fahre". Filter the verb cards, focus on the du/er rows where the stem vowel shifts (essen → du isst, fahren → du fährst, sehen → er sieht, geben → er gibt), and say each one out loud five times. Twenty minutes on these eight verbs removes the most common A1-to-A2 grammar penalty.

What this tool does

500 hand-picked A1-A2 + B1-core German words, enough to read a menu, order at a Berlin bakery, ask for directions, follow a slow podcast, then start reading news in Präteritum. Sources include Goethe-Institut A1/A2/B1 word lists, DWDS frequency data, Jones & Tschirner's "A Frequency Dictionary of German", and Duden Online for articles, plurals, and irregular verb forms.

Fifteen categories cover greetings, numbers, time, family, food and drink, colors, animals, 80 verbs, 60 adjectives, 20 prepositions, plus A2 expansions for body, weather, transport, daily life, and emotions.

Every card shows German spelling, IPA, EN + ZH meanings, der / die / das color-coded on nouns, Duden plural, and an example with EN + ZH translation. Verb cards include the full 6-person Präsens table with strong-verb stem changes (essen → du isst, sehen → er sieht), plus Präteritum 3rd-singular, Perfekt auxiliary, and Partizip II (gehen → ging, ist gegangen; essen → aß, hat gegessen; aufstehen → stand auf, ist aufgestanden). Separable, inseparable, and -ieren prefix rules are encoded. The play button uses your browser's German TTS voice, and starred words stay in localStorage, never uploaded.

After 100 words you survive; after 500 you can talk about today, weather, family, transport, and what hurts. Once Präteritum and Perfekt click, you can start reading simple news. That is the A2 jump and the entry point to Goethe-Zertifikat A2 / B1.

Your "Fit in Deutsch 2" speaking test is in 14 days and you keep blanking on der/die/das. Star the 60 nouns you miss most, drill them with the article read aloud ("der Bahnhof", "die U-Bahn"), and the color anchor sticks the gender. Cover food, transport, and daily-life cards first — those three topics feed straight into the "Über mich" exam prompts.
Read your first Tagesschau article without drowning in past tense
You can speak Präsens but every news sentence is Präteritum (ging, sah, war, hatte) and you stall. Open the 80 verb cards, read only the Präteritum 3rd-singular column, and quiz the 20 highest-frequency verbs. After an hour "er ging zum Bahnhof" parses instantly instead of sending you to a dictionary.
Survive your first week living in Berlin
You land with zero German and need 100 words to eat, ride, and ask for help by Friday. Run the greetings, numbers, food, and transport categories, use the TTS button on the train so you hear "einsteigen / umsteigen / aussteigen" before the U-Bahn announcement does. Star the 30 words you used today and review them on the ride home.
Drill strong-verb stem changes before a placement test
A placement test will dock you for "du esse" and "er fahre". Filter the verb cards, focus on the du/er rows where the stem vowel shifts (essen → du isst, fahren → du fährst, sehen → er sieht, geben → er gibt), and say each one out loud five times. Twenty minutes on these eight verbs removes the most common A1-to-A2 grammar penalty.

Common pitfalls

Learning a noun without its article. "Tisch" alone is useless — star and drill "der Tisch" so the gender rides along, because "die Tisch" mis-declines every adjective after it.
Memorizing only the infinitive of strong verbs. You'll say "du esse" instead of "du isst"; always read the du/er row on the card, where essen → du isst and fahren → du fährst.
Picking "haben" as the Perfekt auxiliary for every verb. Motion and state-change verbs take "sein" — it's "er ist gegangen", not "er hat gegangen"; check the aux flag on each verb card.
