What is a table on Yalango?
A table is a spreadsheet-style grid with as many columns as you need, ideal for conjugations and declensions you want to drill in several directions.
A table on Yalango is a spreadsheet-style way to organize what you want to learn. Instead of the two sides of a flashcard, a table has rows and columns, so you can keep several related pieces of information next to each other.
Tables are a good fit for content that doesn't reduce to a single front and back:
- Verb conjugations across persons and tenses
- Noun declensions with gender and case
- Vocabulary with extra notes, example sentences, or pronunciation
- Any list where a row has more than two useful pieces of information
Tables vs decks
Use a deck when you mostly want to memorize a word and its translation. Use a table when the same item has several forms you want to study together.
The real advantage shows up at practice time: because you choose which column asks the question and which one holds the answer, one table can be drilled in many directions. A verb table can go from infinitive to past tense in one round and back the other way in the next. See Study Yalango tables with games.
Private and public
Your tables are private by default, and you can make any table public from the table settings. Public tables appear in the directory at yalango.com/tables, where other learners can preview them and save a copy to their own library.
Import and export
You can build a table from scratch, import a CSV file, or export it back out at any time.
