Ed and other interested parties-- If you have drawn many flashcards, you could perform a useful service by having them photographed as computer files, for printing by whomever might wish to use them.
Another, extensive, project would be to extract examples from numerous wiki pages into separate pages or files, each labeled with primary topic, preparatory definitions if needed, and test statement, with a separate section for the result and comment. As I think further about the matter, this is very much like our Lab structure, where the result could be delayed until a Proceed signal is given. To use the flashcards sorted by topic, the current Lab structure would suffice. Otherwise, a Jump signal will be needed to choose randomly which one to display next. --Art Anger P.S. Even without a flock of irregularities, J has several verbs with special-case uses, with adverbs, gerunds, or Fit.

I’m trying to improve my understanding of J by using the same approach that got me through German I-III: flashcards. (It’s a huge relief that J, while in some ways as imposing as German, is at least free of irregular verbs.) I just passed 250 cards (vocabulary, grammar and idioms) with no end in sight but it suddenly hit me that I may not be the first person to try this. Have flashcards been used to teach J? If so, what was the experience? And: are there any decks still floating around? Many thanks.
