• Keep one learning point per card.
• Keep the front short.
• Put the answer, pronunciation, and example on the back.
• Mark dialect if relevant.
• Avoid overloading beginner cards with long grammar explanations.
• Preserve Arabic diacritics if supplied; do not invent full tashkeel unless asked.
• Keep Arabic text right-to-left friendly.
• Include common mistakes only when useful.
