Hi,

how many of you are using Clozemaster in both language directions, by doubling up the language pairings?

In my case as I am learning Spanish, I have now also opened the Spanish to English pairing, as if I was a Spanish native speaker who wants to learn English.

When I hide the (Spanish) translation in options and can only see the English sentence, then I can try to translate it in full, and then confirm the sentence (and Cloze word) after the next click, mostly quickly done via the Multiple choice option. I also switch off the speaking, as I obviously do not need the English speaker / pronounciation.

For the English - Spanish learning pairing I am focusing mostly on listening comprehension. So I have switched off the (Spanish) sentence text, as well as “automatically show sentence after first listen”.
This is particularly suitable for own collections of words and sentences, as I will have prepared them myself, so, know that they are relevant for me, and that I should know them / memorise them.

It actually may be good to have the choice of bi-directional language display, in the normal, given learning journey.

Ciao. Yes, I’m doing Italian from English and E from I. I concentrate on the I from E but the reverse has some good vocabulary. Happy learning to you!

I wish this were a thing, because your “workaround” isn’t available for all languages. And I’d love to be able to recall entire sentences.

I agree, a bi-directional language display would very nice. I use clozemaster in both directions: Español/English to practice hearing Spanish sentences without seeing written text and English/Español to practice generating Spanish sentences after hearing the sentences in English.

It would also be nice to be able to export (as well as import) our own collections. This used to be a feature. I have no idea why it was dropped.
