And you have to complete the cloze with “jours”. The sentences are compiled automatically from Tatoeba[1], the cloze deletion is done on the least-common word[2]. This combines vocabulary with grammar. I didn’t like the Clozemaster UI so I wrote a script to make the clozes myself: https://borretti.me/article/building-diy-clozemaster But automatic approaches are not great. Later I asked GPT-4 to make these…

Https://tatoeba.org/en – but not so much on the grammatical analysis. I don’t know anything that does that.

As for other possibilities, I often like tatoeba. Mistakes can be found there, too, but I think most of the sentences were at least human translated. Reverso context is another option, though it also uses machine translations.

Finally, I use the flashcard app Memrise. It uses spaced repetition to show you words right as you are about to forget them. They have user created decks but I prefer to make my own so that the words have more meaning to me. When making the cards I use https://forvo.com/ to get audio and I use https://tatoeba.org/en to get sentences whenever possible.

The hard part is card generation. You cannot just download the top 1k used words deck and be done. You want to learn a new word you need to go find 2/3 sentences with that word in it with audio. https://tatoeba.org/en is my main source but I also have some beginner friendly dictionaries that often have ok sentences and I’ll often post sentences on lang8.com myself to get them checked if I can’t find anything…

There is already such a website, Tatoeba. The data currently available for Assyrian Neo-Aramaic and Syriac (which after a quick look at Wikipedia I think are subgroups of North-Eastern Neo-Aramaic, correct me if I’m wrong) is rather limited and I guess the script is the one you said younger speakers cannot read, but nothing stops you from adding your own sentences using whatever script people use nowadays.

For getting phrases I use Tatoeba and Tangorin. With Yomichan I turn them into Anki cards.

I look up example sentences on Tatoeba containing any new words from the Assimil lesson and add those to Anki too. This helps place words in appropriate contexts and helps reinforce them.

In case it’s helpful, besides reverso, I’ve also found tatoeba to be a great source of sentences that can help learn a word with context.

I would go for the simple Turkish-Arabic/Arabic-Turkish translation method (Substitute Arabic with English if you want) if my goal is recognition.
The Basic (and reversed card) note type is just for that.
You can of course enhance it by adding a field for example sentences, and I strongly recommend that, as learning in context is easier.
You can use online sentence sources like Tatoeba for that.
I wouldn’t bother…
