Language vocab seems a good use case. What other things are people here using spaced repition for?

For language learning I find that using longer phrase fragments is better than single words.

If the phrases are found by yourself in context from your own exposure to the language, it is even better.

I got introduced to this idea a few years ago from AJATT [1] and my personal experience is that it works very well.
