3.0 out of 5 stars for breaking the ground only, May 11, 2008
By Tiberius (Cyberspace) - See all my reviews
The only reason why I bought these cards was that I need to expand my PASSIVE vocabulary in German as fast as possible. But mind you, this set takes you only that far. You can use them to fill up some empty times-lots in your day with meaningful activity. You can even arrange a quiz show with a colleague, friend, or family member who is approximately on the same level as you are.

Let's see the strengths and weaknesses:

+ the part of speech is colour-coded (nouns, verbs, adjectives, others)
+ the gender is indicated with the nouns

- sometimes you cannot find the German word even in a good dictionary (or with Google!)
- sometimes it is not clear which sense of the English equivalent carries the correct meaning (take "cancel" as an example)
- no example sentences or typical idiomatic expressions for the words are given
- no plural or genitive ending is given with the German nouns
- it is not indicated if a German verb belongs to the weak, strong, or mixed category

To sum up, it is a very good idea to give you the first 1001 words you will need in a new language, but the implementation is far from faultless. My cards are filling up with notes and cross-outs and replaced words. I would definitely not recommend this card-set for a true beginner. It is much better for an eternal re-starter like me, who knows too much for a complete beginner's course and can check suspicious words and fill in missing information from a good dictionary.

3.0 out of 5 stars It would have been nice for some sort of order, May 12, 2009
These cards are actually OK, they change the colors for verbs and nouns etc. The only problem is that these words aren't pt in any other category. So if you are the type of person that learns vocabulary in conversational categories like I was taught in high school, you have better be prepared to sort through all these cards yourself. I would have loved a suggestion of what words to use or something.
