But it still sounds like a good way to learn. However, my experience is that flashcards are the most effective way to learn, since words can be shuffled round and extracted when you have learned them. When I learned Hebrew and Aramaic vocabulary, I used custom-designed spreadsheets with the vocabulary in them, using formulae to re-sort the words randomly, and I could consistently learn 50 words a day, spending no more than 20-30 minutes per day.
