Spaced repetition

Why it sticks

Parlé schedules each review with the SM-2 algorithm, bringing a phrase back just before you'd forget it. Phrases you know stretch out to weeks; ones you miss return sooner.

No streaks to protect, no leaderboards. The scheduling does the remembering, so ten minutes a day is enough.

One phrase, remembered

today
2 days
1 week
1 month

Review intervals grow as a phrase settles in — each “Good” pushes it further out.
