So what's the difference between the new and the old "Introductory French"

I just started like a week ago, I'm 114 words in. Should I change? Is there some way in which I don't have to learn the words again, that I already learned? There were a bunch of curious words in the old list and also some inaccuracies, so I'm poised to check the new one, just don't want to start all over again.

  • Well I just checked it out and you can just add the other list and it copies all the plants in your garden into the garden of the new list if they are shared.

  • Merci :)edit How did you do this? I tried messing around and couldn't find anything that appeared to do such a thing. I'm 720 words in... Don't really want to lose my progress.

  • If you start using the new list, it will automatically have all the plants that you cultivated from the old list, you don't need to do anything special—just start using the new one.However, it seems to forget the words you specifically told it not to show you in the old list.

  • Apologies for this - the change was made for some slightly arcane formatting reasons - the differences between the lists is pretty small. You can carry on learning the one that you were learning anyway and there will be no ill effect. Or switch to the new one, again this should make no difference.The way that a wordlist works on Memrise is that all lists use exactly the same words in the main database. So the words that are in both of these lists are the identical items in the database. If you have learned them n Memrise, then Memrise will know that you have learned them, whichever list you are looking at. Does that make sense?So if you want to start learning the new list, just click on it and start learning - your garden will already be full. Hope that makes sense, please let me know if you have any trouble!I will look in to the "ignore words" being carried over - that may be a set-specific setting, in which case I will see how we can fix it.
