Practice · Apply the words

Use the words on a patient, not just a card.

An encounter tests whether you recognize vocabulary when a patient says it back to you. A shift strings several visits together under one clock. Every debrief shows why a choice helped or hurt, and points back to the track it came from. When you finish, your misses join your Study review list.

These are learning simulations. They do not assess clinical competence, and they do not authorize you to interpret for a patient. When a real conversation affects care, a qualified medical interpreter carries it.

A whole board, one clock, and a handoff at the end. What you skip in the morning is still waiting at noon.

Tests

Exam conditions: pick one track or mix all of them, answer without notes or per-question feedback, and get a score plus your miss list at the end. Misses join your Study review list. Tests are part of Signos+.

After practice, Study does the sorting.

Misses from spoken lines in encounters and drills feed the same review list. Open Study and it tells you what to work on next, instead of leaving you to guess from a library of 400 phrases.
