Frequently asked questions
- How does Parrot's spaced repetition system work?
- Spaced repetition schedules your reviews based on how well you remember each word. Struggle with a word and it appears sooner. Remember it easily and the next review spaces out over days or weeks. The timing is automatic and optimized for long-term retention, the same principles med students use.
- Do I have to build my own flashcard decks?
- No. Every word you tap to translate in a video is saved to your personal dictionary and becomes a flashcard automatically. Parrot handles all the formatting, scheduling, and organization. Your only job is to watch videos and swipe through reviews.
- How many Spanish words can I learn with Parrot?
- There's no limit. Your dictionary grows as you watch more videos. Most learners save 10 to 20 words per session and review daily. Over weeks this compounds into hundreds of retained words.
- Is Parrot better than Anki for vocabulary?
- Parrot gives you the retention power of Anki's spaced repetition without the manual deck-building. Your flashcards are auto-generated from native-speaker video, so they're always contextualized. If you want SRS without the setup friction, Parrot is the better choice.
- Can I use Parrot alongside other Spanish tools?
- Absolutely. Many learners use Parrot for vocabulary and immersion while supplementing with grammar resources or conversation practice. The personal dictionary works independently and integrates into any study routine.
- How much time do I need for vocabulary reviews?
- Most learners spend 3 to 5 minutes a day on Tinder-swipe flashcard reviews. Because Parrot uses spaced repetition, you only review words that are due, keeping sessions short.
- Are the words I learn suitable for my level?
- Yes. Parrot's feed adjusts to your level so vocabulary is always comprehensible. You'll encounter words slightly above your current ability, the optimal zone for acquisition (n+1 comprehensible input).
- What makes Parrot different from Duolingo or Memrise?
- Duolingo and Memrise use pre-made word lists and gamified drills. Parrot's vocabulary comes from real native-speaker videos so you learn words in context first, then reinforce with spaced repetition.
