I am not aware of any J flash cards.

But, you could make your own flash cards.

J vocabulary is quite a bit smaller than german vocabulary which would
make writing your own flash cards relatively easy.

Personally, I would recommend spending half an hour a day doing stuff
with J -- labs, looking things up in the dictionary, reading some of
the J books. For me the difficulty learning J was learning how the
concepts built on each other. Seeing how the operations produce
results in various ways has always been key for understanding what's
going on, for me. Working through details of things like "how does the
parser work" was also illuminating.

That said, if you do make flash cards, I suppose you could include
foreigners and "special code" on the list (depending on how ambitious
you are). And, others might be interested in your work.
