Levels
The corpus counts how often each word really occurs. Learn them in that order and the commonest words — the ones you cannot read a sentence without — come first.
Topics
The same words grouped by what they are about.

Cards you get wrong come back sooner; cards you know are spaced further apart each time.

Brahui — Latin

IPA
Why the diacritics matter. Urdu text normally omits short-vowel marks and a TTS engine
guesses them from its own Urdu lexicon — which contains no Brahui words. Every output here is fully
vocalized (zabar / zer / pesh / sukun) so the engine reads exactly what is written and the
long–short vowel contrast survives.
