Sharp Ears

Study

Answer first, then rate how securely you knew it.

1. Hard — prove it three times; review tomorrow
2. Medium — prove it twice; review in 3 days
3. Easy — learned; review in 3 weeks

A wrong answer cannot be marked Easy. Hard and Medium words return inside the same session, and a repeated word never inflates today's word count or earns XP twice.

Your progress

The black, red and gold route fills toward each hundred words met. Every correctly solved word is also 100 XP toward the ring's daily goal.

Games

Five different ways to retrieve words without changing your review schedule.

Wort Rally — match five pairs against a 75-second clock. Solved pairs are replaced, so it never stops.

Blitz 60 — one word, four meanings, 60 seconds. Faster answers score more.

Sharp Ears — ten rounds of listening. Nothing is spelled out until you answer.

Sentence Switch — rebuild ten useful German example sentences from shuffled word tiles.

Wortle — find a five-letter German noun in six tries, with proper duplicate-letter scoring.

Whatever you pick here is what all five games use — everything, one level, one topic, or just the common words.
