Hundred Language · cards turn when you tap them

Any language · returning after a long gap

Three months back at it, after however long you were away

You could hold a conversation once. Now the page looks familiar and empty, and the distance between that summer and this week is the main reason you keep not starting. Returning is mostly a matter of daily contact until the old material surfaces.

The usual shape of a return

card 1

Recovery, mostly. Old vocabulary comes back faster than it went in, and this surprises almost everybody.

Day 1–10

Recovery, mostly. Old vocabulary comes back faster than it went in, and this surprises almost everybody.

Day 30

The comparison with your old level stops running the session, and current material takes over.

Day 100

A hundred days of contact and a written record, so the next gap has something to restart from.

Coming back is a different job from starting

why returning is hard

The gap between what you had and what you have is discouragingEvery session begins with a comparison you lose. That alone keeps people away from the book for another year.
Nothing in your current week touches the languageNo class, no colleagues, no trip booked. Without a fixed daily slot, the language has no route back into the calendar.
The last attempt ended and no one can say whenThere was no final day, no record and no reason, which makes the next attempt feel equally fragile before it begins.

Where the practice happens

Three tasks each morning, one report each night, for a hundred days

the format

01 Start below where you think you are The first weeks are for surfacing what is still there. Easy material moves faster than the material your pride suggests.
02 Report daily, including the ten-minute days Two lines. The value comes from the entry existing, which is what makes the gap visible on the day it starts.
03 Return in public The group is full of people on a second or third attempt. Reading their reports removes most of the private weight from yours.

What returners usually ask

Where do I start if I do not know my level?

Wherever you like. There is no test and no level in this programme, so the first week is a cheap way to find out by doing.

Do you provide the material?

No. Old textbook, new app, podcast, tutor: whatever you choose becomes the content of the three tasks.

I have failed at this twice. Why is this different?

Because a skipped day is written down and read by other people, and the hundred days have a fixed end. Whether that is enough for you, we cannot promise.

Can I switch languages mid-programme?

The format does not care which language the tasks are in. Switching resets your material, not your day count.

Is there a group call?

The core is written: your list, your report, and the logs of the people on the same hundred days.

Three tasks each morning. One report each night. A hundred days of language.

The next attempt with a start date and an end date

Leave an email and we write once, when the dates are fixed. Nothing is charged on this page.

One email when the group opens. Nothing more.
