How to Learn English in Obsidian Using Word Memorization

  • The speaker uses Obsidian to keep a simple study note structure:
    • Date
    • Example sentences
    • A dictionary entry format where each word is paired with its meaning (mentioned as “two minuses and its meaning,” i.e., a specific text/markup format)

Tutorial: Spaced Repetition via a Flashcards Plugin (Spaced … Plugin)

Setup

  • Install and enable a spaced-repetition flashcard plugin.
  • Enable it in third-party plugins.
  • Disable safe mode.
  • Install the plugin (name appears as “Spaced Fish Tishin” / “Spaced Rehearsal”).

How it works

  • The plugin turns a note into card-style flashcards:
    • Front side: English word
    • Back side: word meaning
  • The user marks whether they remember the meaning or not.

Applying it to a specific note

  • Add/configure flashcards in the note.
  • Use a “magic button” / generate cards (as described).

Scheduling logic

  • If you don’t remember: next review in ~1 day
  • If you almost remember: next review in ~23 days
  • If it’s easy / remembered: it will ask again much later

During practice

  • Words show answers; difficult words are reviewed sooner.

Claimed benefit

  • Works not only for English—can be used for any learning/training.
  • Cards can include text, pictures, and even formulas.

Tutorial: Using a YouTube Context Plugin (“Yu Live and Ugoley”)

Setup

  • Install and activate a second plugin (name appears as “Yu Live and Ugoley”).
  • It adds extra tags tied to the spaced-repetition workflow (described as coming “from the Space Rehearsal plugin”).

What it does

  • Shows the usage of the selected word on YouTube.
  • Workflow described:
    • Open a note / editor
    • Select a word (they mention selecting in the editor “by clicking”)
    • The plugin displays where that word appears in YouTube video context

Additional detail

  • Notes can reflect word variants (example: an English word with Australian variants; they reference “Khaikin” as an example term).
