I was just curious, for those of you who use flashcards/Anki for vocabulary/sentences,
how do you organize the information and why?

I am personally learning Japanese, but I am definitely still interested in how people
learning other languages choose to do it too!

Here is a screenshot of what mine look like;

The front has a word (in kanji if I have studied the kanji it is written with, hiragana
if not).

And the back has the definition/translation, type of word (e.g. pronoun, verb, ect.),
the hiragana spelling (if it is written in kanji on the front, if not than it has the
kanji), the intonation, and anywhere from 1-4 example sentences.

Also, the majority of the words have recordings for either the word, the sentences, or
both.   

What do you think?

I think yours is good.

The basic idea is to have A on a side and B on the other side. When the card show A as hint, we need to derive B. When it shows B, we need to derive A.

If it show Japanese words, you guess its meaning.

When it show the meaning and/or example sentences, we'd guess the word. But be careful not to accidentally show the word in the example sentences :D
