Memrise
Vocabulary learning platform
Memrise is a language-learning platform and app that uses spaced repetition and multimedia content to help users acquire vocabulary and phrases in foreign languages.
The name blends "memorize" with "rise," suggesting the growth of memory skills.
Users learn through flashcards, video clips of native speakers, and gamified exercises designed to make retention more effective.
I've been using Memrise to brush up on my Spanish before the trip.
