What are your favorite anki decks, and which language?
I love anki but it's hard to find a quality deck imo, mainly because the search is bad. What are your favorite decks, and for which language?
Thanks!

I think the best way to learn vocabulary using anki is to make your own decks.
But for basic Korean vocabulary I have started using TTMIK's First 500 Korean Words by Retro. My only complaint so far is that it only teaches words in the Korean -> English direction, not both ways.
That’s what I have enjoyed. For example, I wanted a learn a little Catalan, so I made cards to learn enough to have a 5 minute conversation about topics we were both interested in.
Because the cards were personalized, it helped me to stay motivated.
Probably true, but it would take a hell of a long time (or so i'd imagine) to create an entire deck potentially stuffed with hundreds, or even a thousand words.
Thanks for the recommendation, too

I've had a routine back when I was more actively doing language learning: set aside one day of the week to create cards, just a couple to a handful or so (which for cloze cards with an average of five items, would already be a good number). Little by little that deck would grow.
In particular, I've had a French grammar and a Japanese vocabulary deck I grew that way. The Japanese deck contained vocabulary words from the textbooks I used (mostly Genki I and II) and at the moment has 1.97k cards The French grammar deck had snippets from a grammar reference book and at the moment has 603 cards. Not much, but I tend not to add more cards until I really need to (pending reviews down to almost zero).
I've long resigned to the fact that doing Anki is a very long game, and there's no use creating hundreds of cards in a weekend if I can get away with creating a handful every now and then.
Good tip, thank you.
