Hey Velquinn, I’ve been building a quick‑access system for rare words—think tag‑based folders and spaced‑repetition prompts so you can drill them in under five minutes a day. It cuts down the “I can’t remember where I saved that word” time. Have you experimented with any tagging or digital cataloging methods for your collection?

Sounds handy, thank you for the heads‑up! I’ve been tagging mostly by part of speech and semantic field, then grouping those tags into a little spreadsheet. I also keep a quick‑reference PDF with the most obscure ones, but I’m always hunting for a way to surface them faster. Maybe a spaced‑repetition schedule could help me not lose the rhythm of the rare words I collect. Let me try it out and see how it fits into my routine.

Sounds great—just keep it bite‑sized. I’d plug your spreadsheet into Anki or a similar flash‑card app, set each card to review after 1, 3, 7, 14 days, and let the algorithm do the heavy lifting. That way you’ll surface those obscure gems on autopilot, no extra hunting time. Give it a week, tweak the intervals, and you’ll have the rhythm you need. Good luck!

Thanks for the tip, I’ll give it a whirl. I wonder if some words will need a bit more nuanced spacing, but I’ll let the algorithm set the rhythm and see how it goes. I’ll keep you posted on how it works out.

Sounds like a solid plan—just keep an eye on the review stats and tweak the intervals if you notice any words slipping. Let me know how it goes, I’ll tweak the setup if you hit a snag. Good luck!

Will do—thanks for the heads‑up. I’ll watch the stats and keep a note of any words that feel like they’re skipping the rhythm. If I hit a snag, I’ll ping you. Looking forward to seeing how it all plays out.

Sounds good—track those stats and you’ll catch any hiccups early. Happy hunting, and hit me up if anything feels off!
Velquinn Velquinn
Will keep an eye on the numbers, thanks. I’ll let you know if anything looks off. Happy hunting to you too!

Sounds good—I'll share the stats next week and we can tweak the settings together. Thanks!
