What you get for $4.99
1000 Mandarin Chinese cards with short example sentences in simplified characters, translations and audio, assembled in one Anki download. Import the .apkg file to add the cards and their audio together.
How the words were chosen: the 1,000 most frequent words in spoken Mandarin, ranked by word frequency in the OpenSubtitles 2018 Chinese corpus (Hermit Dave's FrequencyWords list, CC BY-SA 4.0). Traditional spellings are counted with their simplified form; names, places, interjections and swear words are left out. Cards follow that order, most frequent first.
Audio: eight ElevenLabs AI voices (four female, four male), each cloned from a native speaker from mainland China, alternating by card. AI-generated, not human recordings.
Sentences: example sentences are AI-written, each reviewed by a second AI model and checked by hand.
The samples above show the prompt and Chinese answer. Listen to the audio and check the sentence style before choosing.

“Excellent resource! The decks are high quality and saved me a lot of study time. Highly recommended for anyone using Anki.”
“The method utilizes multiple senses modalities for learning, e.g. reading, hearing a native speaker at natural rate and inflection, and speaking (very much like professional language school). The repetition is important and makes implementation of what was learned seem natural.”
