Learning words, sometimes you just already know these words and you don’t want to plant them again, because we all know planting costs way more time than reviewing. The thing is, you do want to review them. I think it would be great if there was a possibility to plant words automatically/magically without earning point from it.
If I already planted words in another course, but I quit that course for some reason, I do not like to have to plant these words again.
If memrise would make a possibility to automatically plant words that would make me, and a lot of other memrise users, very happy!
It seems you just need to put in a bit of time to ‘learn’ them manually with the way things are set up now. There’s a thread here that has been asking for the same thing, but there doesn’t seem to be a solution. On the bright side, it should be very fast to correctly answer the words since you already find them easy.
There is a solution. Either Memrise allow all to “auto-learn” or at least allow course creators to set their lessons to allow “auto-learn”. Many of my courses already have video or text based lessons that bypass the need to test the material 6 times to determine it’s learned. For sentence based questions, this is more so the case.
It doesn’t even have to be “auto” learn. Having a button that explicitly moves a word from the “learning” queue to the “review regularly” queue would be enough for me at least.
Ideally, that button would be there during all six steps of the learning phase that you can shortcut out not only at step 1 but also at step 4 if you decide that’s enough (and then it’s your own fault if you later keep getting it wrong
