Knowing about a word is not the same as knowing it.

You can read this whole list in an afternoon. A month later, most of it will be gone. Fuguro teaches each word in a short lesson, brings it back for review right before you forget it, and then uses it in stories you can already read. The first five levels are free, and reviews stay free forever.
