translate and Quizlet I'm going to quickly show you how to do this it's going to save you time
it's a great way of studying and I'm going to show you a couple of tips about exactly what I do
really hope you like the video and as always if you do please share it please like it please
comment on it love to know what you think of this idea and of course join me on my YouTube channel
let's get started so let me start by showing you the trick and then I'll show you exactly
how I do it I've got here some words that I've been saving in my google translate and to save a
word you simply put it in and then click on save but we'll come back to that I've got 25 phrases
here I'm going to click on this button here and export all of those words into a google sheet
and to do that I just click on that button now and then this button here to import the words now
all I need to do is copy the words that I want to bring in to Quizlet and let's just
grab a few I can obviously take the lot all I need to do is I'm using my shift key
to select the words I want to save let's say these ones here okay very very simple to do that all I'm
doing is using shift and the arrow key to select the words I want to copy and then I'm going to
press on copy as that is it all I need to do now is paste those words into Quizlet let me show you
how I do that so I've got Quizlet open here on the screen I'm going to click on create study set now
this is where you're really going to save yourself a lot of time if I just write in the words and
let's say for example new words okay is my title then I click on this button here and all I need to
do now is actually paste in by just pressing ctrl v or of course I can right click and press
paste and there are the words I've got from my google translate and I click on
import and now I've got all of those words ready and if I click on create we can start to actually
work with these words now I'm going to show you a couple of tips when
working with Quizlet and then I'll quickly go back and show you how to use google translate
when I work with Quizlet I tend to work with phrases not individual words I much prefer
to work with phrases remember that if you click on options what you can do is turn on the audio
click on advanced and then what I normally do is I have the English off because I speak
English but I have the polish on and this means now that when I see that I've got the phrase
in polish then I can try to translate it so this is a colloquial phrase
okay then go to the next one okay this uh the book includes a cassette
okay so um so many uh English words uh are included in polish language okay so you can
practice this way so that's a great little tip just by using that button there and setting
the options of the audio you really can make it much more interesting another lovely thing to do
is to use the play button and this will just play the song words for you
I'll just turn it off for me and one of the reasons why I do with this often is that I
walk away from the computer just listen to the words without reading them and seeing if I can
remove remember the translations into English so that's what I do with Quizlet it works really
well I'm just going to quickly show you how I use google translate google translate is really
useful let's say for example I was listening to this video in polish and there was this sentence
here that I wanted to understand in English I can just copy that jump over to my google translate
paste in the word in polish so you can choose the language that you want you can just click here to
choose any language that you want to work with and I'm going to work from polish to English I
just paste in the word it gives me the translation and then what I can do if I want to add that to my
collection of words to save I just click there and then that word will be added notice you can even
open up your list of saved words by clicking here at the bottom so each word that you save
will come in this list here and you can even listen to them nab squad planner
okay and then remember what I showed you just click on that button there
and that brings those words into a document which you can then copy and then bring into
Quizlet and that's the trick that I use one little thing when you do do this make sure that you kind
of pull the work the lot of spaces out just to make sure that you've got the complete word okay
always do that especially when you it's easy when you're working with single words but if you're
working with sentences it's important to just make sure that you create the space for the words to uh
completely go in one box it's a really important trick before you copy them so just bring them out
nice and wide like that and then what I do is I simply click on shift and the arrow key and
then click down on the arrow key to select all the words that I want to copy once I've selected them
just right click and click on copy and now you're ready to go paste them in one click and you're off
