Forget-Me-Knot

Every word is a plant with a growth stage. Answer a review correctly and the plant grows, its next review pushes further out. Miss it and it resets to a short interval and sprouts back into this session as a fast-decaying weed you must clear again. The session ends only when every plant has reached full bloom with no weeds left.

• Read each prompt and choose the right meaning
• Correct answers grow the plant and space out its next review
• Misses spawn a weed you must re-clear this session
• Finish when the whole garden is in bloom

• Trust your first instinct on words you've already bloomed
• Use the spacing: a word you just grew won't return for a while, so focus on the fragile ones

Forget-Me-Knot turns spaced-repetition vocabulary review into a living garden, so words stick for the long term.

• Skills: vocabulary, spaced repetition, long-term recall, foreign language

Words as plants whose next review pushes further out when you succeed and resets when you fail is spaced repetition, and the interval scheme is the Leitner system made visible.

Rendering the schedule as growth is the original metaphor.

The schedule follows the forgetting curve, Ebbinghaus's finding that memory decays rapidly and then levels off. Reviewing just before you would forget is what flattens it, which is why expanding intervals beat the same total time spent cramming.
