Cloze deletion preserves the context around the answer, which makes it easier to retain than isolated Q/A cards. It's the format of choice for medical school terminology, language vocab, and STEM formulas.
The syntax {{c1::answer}} marks a deletion. Multiple deletions ({{c1::}}, {{c2::}}) on the same sentence create multiple cards from one source — each generates a separate card with that specific blank.
QuickCards lets you write cloze cards manually in the editor or generate them automatically from any source — paste a vocab list and the AI clozes the key terms.
