Flashcards

When cards come up, and what goes back to Anki. Which decks each of these applies to is set per deck in Your Decks.

How often you want to be asked

The recall probability a review is scheduled for, what Anki calls desired retention. Palimpsest has always used 0.90, which is also Anki's default. If a deck's Anki preset was tuned away from that, every interval here will disagree with Anki until this matches it. Higher means shorter gaps and more reviews.

0.90

Learning steps

The short ladder a card walks before it earns a real interval, written the way Anki writes it. "1m 10m" means a new card answered again comes back in a minute, good in ten, and good once more hands it to the scheduler — which is why a new card in Anki takes three answers to leave the ladder, not two. The second box is the ladder for a card you have just failed. A deck can override both in its own settings, and a deck imported from Anki starts with whatever its preset there said.

Definitions

Which language leads when you tap a word. ? The language you're learning — one definition of the sense used here, written with words you already know.

English — a numbered list of everything the word can mean. Appears instantly, with no wait.

Whichever leads, the other stays a click away in the same pop-up.

Quiz questions

Which language the questions after a text or video are written in. ? Automatic — English below B1, the language you're learning from B1 up. A question you have to decode is a second reading test.

The language you're learning — questions and answer options in that language, written below your level.

English — questions and options in English; passage words are quoted where the question is about them.

Whichever you pick, every question card has a small toggle (the language's code | EN, so RU | EN for Russian) that switches that one question.
