Sentence mining
Sentence mining means collecting whole sentences from real content instead of memorizing isolated words. Save the ones that matter to you and build a personal collection of examples.
The My sentences page is on the web today.
Instead of memorizing isolated vocabulary, you collect complete sentences from authentic content. Each sentence gives you:
- Real context showing how words are actually used
- Grammar patterns demonstrated naturally
- Word combinations you can reuse as they are
- A personal connection to content you chose
Save a sentence
While reading a lesson, select a phrase or sentence and choose "Save". It keeps its audio, translation and word alignment.
Organize with lists
Create sentence lists to group related sentences by topic, lesson, grammar point, or any category you choose.
Tag for easy finding
Add tags when you save, and star your favorites. Use tags like "subjunctive", "idioms", or "song lyrics".
Explain
Get a plain-words explanation of the grammar, the vocabulary and the context of any saved sentence.
Audio playback
Listen to each sentence and practice your pronunciation by repeating after it.
Search & filter
Find sentences by word, by source — lessons, contextual reviews, podcasts, videos — by tag, or by star.
Find a great sentence
While studying, you come across a sentence that shows a grammar point perfectly or holds vocabulary you want to keep.
Save it
Select it and choose "Save". Add a star, tags or a note right there.
Organize
Put it in a list. For example, a "past tense" list with the tag "irregular verbs".
Come back to it
Open My sentences to review: listen, read the explanation, and reinforce what you learned.
Tips for effective sentence mining
- 1Only save sentences you understand. One unknown word per sentence is ideal.
- 2Quality over quantity. A few memorable sentences beat hundreds of forgettable ones.
- 3Use tags consistently. Develop a tagging system that works for your learning goals.
- 4Review regularly. Schedule time to revisit your sentence collection.
