For vocab flashcards, is there a benefit to studying both TL -> English and English -> TL, or is just English -> TL sufficient?
I’ve been slowly eating a 5000 word frequency deck for French, studying both French-English and English-French. I saw a comment here in an old thread where someone suggested to only bother with English-French.
The logic makes sense to me: French - English is much less challenging, and it comes naturally if you already know the English-French. I also practice French-English naturally by reading and listening.
If I dropped French-English, I could use the use the time to learn more vocab cards or just reduce my total time on Anki. However, I wanted to see what others had to say before I make any big change to my routine. I have found vocab flashcards immensely useful to improving my conversational abilities so far, I’m just looking to see if this switch would be an easy efficiency boost with no downsides.
