Outis Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Hi all, I gave my hebrew flashcards to my sister-in-law. She made good use of them. But now I don't have any flashcards. So Here's my question (actually there's two): 1) There are bunches of flashcard programs in the app store for my iPhone. Which one do you suggest. 2) How can I get Accordance to search for words which are used greater than x times in the OT (or NT)? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Simpson Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Hi Steve, I do't have a fave for iOS, Anki is my preferred on MacOS. As to the other, select your text (say HMT-4) and put in [COUNT X-10000] when in word mode. You can then do an analysis and get a word list with meaning and count... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Bennett Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Mental Case (Mac & iOS) is a great flashcard app. You can create your own sets or import from flashcardexchange.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outis Posted September 21, 2012 Author Share Posted September 21, 2012 Sorry for not getting back to this sooner. Had a busy day or two. Thanks to you both for getting back to me. The hebrew keeps sliding off the plate. I just gotta keep putting it back on the plate again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R Gustason Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I use study blue. It is cross platform and stored on a web account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Kuo Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 I've been using Anki for my Greek and Hebrew flash cards for a number of years. The desktop version is free but the iOS version is not. It syncs to the web and uses a "spaced repetition" so the cards that I get correct I will see less often.

Jonathan C. Borland Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I heartily recommend iFlash, which IMO has the most features, iPhone/iPod syncing, fully Unicode compliant, many user preference settings, etc. And it's really cheap...at least it was only $5 years ago when I purchased it.

Joe Weaks Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I wrote a module called Flashcord File Converter that allows you to create decks for these programs (i.e. tab-delimited files) from the analysis results of Accordance searches you perform. This allows the creation of custom decks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outis Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 Thanks guys, for the comments. Joe, I'll have to give your converter a try. The prospect of individually adding hebrew words and then their definitions was crippling. Thanks for providing this tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Nigro Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Joe, you may just be my hero! Where can I get the converter? Thank you! Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Kuo Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Though adding each word individually is very time consuming, I found two benefits: First, I had seen each word at least once already and typing it in forced me to slow down. Second, I learned how to use the Greek and Hebrew layout on my keyboard without having to pull up a reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Weaks Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Joe, you may just be my hero! Where can I get the converter? Thank you! Mark Mark, It can be downloaded here. It was written for Acc9, but I think should still work. Let me know if not. It should just be minor tweaks. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Nigro Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Thanks so much, Joe! I will try it out and post back to let you know how it goes in v.10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Nigro Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Does anyone have a tip about getting Hebrew content into Mental Case from Accordance? Copying and pasting into the note cards requires manually changing the font selected in Mental Case, which is fine since the text copies out as Yehudit and I am able to select that in the flash card application, thus applying it to the entire stack. However, after excitedly syncing a stack of about 100 cards from my Mac application with the iOS version of MC, there was no Yehudit font option in the iOS version of Mental Case, so none of my Hebrew cards are readable on the go. Should I change the way I extract the text from Accordance? BTW, I haven't begun using Joe's scripts yet for the "File Converter" but I plan too when I get a chance to experiment this coming week. Thanks all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 I would think that converting the text to Unicode fonts would be the better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 (edited) Yes, you need to use unicode. Export to .rtf, clean the file up some, then import into FlashCardExchange. The only downfall that you will have with Mental Case is its inability to change Syriac Fonts. It doesn't support the Estrangelo script, only the Serta.

Mark Nigro Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Yes, unicode took care of the problem. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Dearinger Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Mark, It can be downloaded here. It was written for Acc9, but I think should still work. Let me know if not. It should just be minor tweaks. Joe Joe, is your flashcord converter broken? I tried to use it and get this message: "“FlashCord Converter” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Weaks Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Michael, Something very well may have broken in Yosemite. I've not checked it. Will have a look sometime soon. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
