  • Spaced repetition — Review at increasing intervals: 1 day → 3 days → 7 days → 14 days.Aralıklı tekrar yapın: 1 gün → 3 gün → 7 gün → 14 gün arayla çalışın.
  • Study in sentences — Never memorize a word alone. Learn it in context.Kelimeleri cümle içinde öğrenin, yalnız ezberlemeyin.
  • Learn word families — "justify" → "justification" → "justified" → "unjustified".Kelime ailelerini öğrenin: fiil, isim, sıfat birlikte çalışın.
  • Learn collocations — "strong evidence", "draw a conclusion", "pose a threat".Kelime gruplarını (collocations) öğrenin.
  • Review difficult words often — Use the "Still Learning" feature to focus on weak spots.Zor kelimeleri daha sık tekrar edin.

🃏 Flashcard Strategies

  • Type before you peek — Always try to write the meaning first using the typing area.Önce yazmaya çalışın, sonra cevabı kontrol edin.
  • Make your own sentence — After seeing the back, create a personal example.Kendi cümlenizi kurun.
  • Test both directions — Practice English→Turkish AND Turkish→English.Her iki yönde de çalışın.
  • Focus on "Still Learning" — Don't waste time on words you already know.Zaten bildiğiniz kelimelerde vakit kaybetmeyin.
  • Use shuffle mode — Prevents memorizing card order instead of content.Sıralama ezberlemekten kaçının.

📝 Fill-in-the-Blank Tips

  • Read the whole sentence first — Understand context before checking options.Önce tüm cümleyi okuyun.
  • Identify the logic — Contrast, cause, result, addition, or time?Mantıksal ilişkiyi belirleyin.
  • Check part of speech — Does the blank need a noun, verb, or adverb?Kelime türünü kontrol edin.
  • Eliminate wrong answers — Even if unsure, crossing out helps.Yanlış seçenekleri eleyin.
  • Don't guess by familiarity — Known words can be wrong answers too!Tanıdık kelime her zaman doğru cevap değildir.

🎯 YDT Exam Strategies

  • Time management — Max 60–90 seconds per question. Mark and return to hard ones.Soru başına 60-90 saniye.
  • Break long sentences — Find subject, verb, and the blank's role.Uzun cümleleri parçalara bölün.
  • Context clues are king — Words around the blank often reveal the answer.Bağlam ipuçları çok önemlidir.
  • Watch for connectors — "However", "moreover", "consequently" are huge hints.Bağlayıcılara dikkat edin.
  • Beware distractors — Grammatically correct ≠ logically correct.Dilbilgisel olarak doğru ≠ mantıksal olarak doğru.

⚠️ Common Turkish Student Mistakes

  • Ignoring part of speech — Don't pick a word just because it looks familiar.Kelime türünü kontrol etmeden seçmeyin.
  • Confusing formal/informal — Academic English ≠ everyday speech.Akademik İngilizce ≠ günlük dil.
  • Skipping connectors — "Nevertheless", "moreover" are the KEY to whole sentences.Geçiş kelimelerini atlamayın.
  • Word-by-word translation — Turkish and English have different structures.Kelime kelime çeviri yapmayın.
  • Memorizing without examples — You must recognize words in full sentences.Örnek olmadan ezberlemeyin.
