Whichever introductory grammar your course uses, the vocabulary is probably already here.

Study modes

Four ways to drill, one engine underneath

Pick the mode that fits where you are in the learning process — spaced repetition tracks every word across all of them.

Guided study New to a word? Work through it in small batches — flashcard introduction, then an immediate quiz on the same set before moving on.
Flashcards Classic tap-to-reveal cards. Show Greek or English first, and shuffle your deck.
Quiz Multiple-choice questions drawn from your deck, with immediate right/wrong feedback. Length is configurable from 5 to 50 questions.
Matching game Match Greek words to English definitions by tapping tiles in two columns. Wrong guesses shake and clear; correct matches lock in green.

Every card is scheduled with SM-2 spaced repetition — the system behind Anki — so each word comes back at precisely the right moment: not so soon that it wastes your time, not so late that you have forgotten it. The Due Today queue shows what needs attention, most overdue and hardest first.

The progress dashboard adds a daily goal (customizable from 5–100 cards a day) with streak tracking, a seven-day review chart, a 30-day retention rate, and a Trouble Words list of your ten most-missed words with links to drill them. A Word of the Day from the top 1,000 NT words appears on the home screen each morning.

Greek text is rendered in Gentium Plus, the SIL font designed for Biblical languages, with an adjustable font size. Full-text search covers every word in the app — search by Greek word or English meaning — and you can build your own named review lists while you study. A daily study reminder is configurable.
