Self Study

The Self Study screen lets you choose what type of vocabulary or grammar you want to practise.

Self Study Screen
  1. Verbs — practise verb meanings, conjugation, gerund, past participle, indefinido, and recognition.
  2. Nouns — practise meaning, gender (el / la), singular / plural, and alternate-gender pairs.
  3. Phrases — set phrases and common Spanish expressions: greetings, time/date phrases, social formulas, conversational chunks.
  4. Words — single-word vocabulary that isn't a verb or noun: adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, numbers.

How Self Study works

Each of the four vocabulary sections (Verbs, Nouns, Phrases, Words) has the same internal structure: Setup, Study, and Test.

  • Setup — define your word pool (which words are eligible to appear). Filters include CEFR level (A1–C2), frequency, topic, and — for verbs — grammatical group (regular, stem-changing, irregular, reflexive, …).
  • Study — browse-only reference: conjugation tables, word lists, grammar notes. Nothing is recorded.
  • Test — active practice: flashcards and drills. Every answer is recorded and feeds the adaptive engine.

Always configure Setup before starting a Test session. If no words are selected, the session will be empty.

What each section offers

Verbs is the most comprehensive section. It includes a full Setup system for filtering which verbs and tenses you practise, plus six different test types. See the Verbs Coach page for details.

Nouns is the next most extensive — five test types covering meaning, article (el/la), plural formation, recall-gender, and alternate-gender pairs. See Nouns Coach.

Phrases is the section for multi-word chunks like buenos días, de vez en cuando, encantado. Select Phrases, browse them, then drill them with flashcards. See Phrases Coach.

Words covers single-word vocabulary that isn't a verb or noun — adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, numbers. Same Setup / Study / Test flow as the rest. See Words Coach.
