This flashcard set helps university-level English learners expand their vocabulary with 196 cards. The set focuses on idiomatic expressions and phrasal verbs, such as "get up to" for mischief, "get round to" for finding time, and "get on for" to approach a certain age. The platform supports backward learning, allowing users to practice from English to German and vice versa. Ideal for advanced students and exam takers, these cards help refine language skills and prepare for academic challenges.
