What is in this deck
With this deck you learn Italian for a holiday flat at level A2: 180 cards for the sentences that really come up, from handover to complaint.
La raccolta differenziata is not a recommendation in Italy but a duty with fixed weekdays. At this level you ask about it and understand the answer.
180 cards in eight parts: la prenotazione, the delayed flight, il codice del portone, the detersivo, the bidoni, the quiet hours, the vicini.
Added to that is how a guest raises a fault without complaining: Può dare un'occhiata? That is 121 sentences and 59 words, with pronunciation everywhere.
The categories decide what comes up: start with “Introductions” alone and add the rest when you are ready.
You learn Italian. The cards, the categories and the usage notes are in English, so you never have to learn through a third language.

Learning with Qardbox
You see a card, you think, you turn it over and say whether you knew it. A round asks nothing more of you, and how the app works out the next date from that is on the page about FSRS-6.
What sits comes back less often, what wobbles comes back soon. You set a daily goal, and when nothing is due the app tells you exactly that instead of inventing work for you. How a round goes is shown on the learning page.
Everything stays on your device. No account, no sign-up, no ads. After the purchase the deck sits in your library like any other subject and can be studied, reordered and extended just like your own.
What it costs, and what it doesn’t
Qardbox itself costs nothing, and it stays that way. Every function is there from the start, with no subscription, no ads and no tiers; what that rests on is on the page about what it costs.
Your own cards stay unlimited, and decks from friends or from the family you read in without a limit, from a file as well. You do not need this deck in order to learn with Qardbox.
It is a shortcut: 180 checked cards for €1.29, once, with Family Sharing. The work you would otherwise do is already done. The App Store shows the price in your currency.
