Slight alteration to the KOLUP deck building strategy. Plan is still to slowly add ~10-20 K-E sentence cards each day from the TTMIK grammar books via the Memrise deck. As I mentioned earlier, however, even with this it's hard to keep to the i + 1 principle adhered to by JALUP. After perusing the
My Weekly Korean Vocabulary (Henceforth
MWKV) ebooks, however, I realized they are almost exactly this, complete with grammar points. Here's an image of one of one page as an example:

In addition, the ebook pdfs come with easy ability to copy + paste both English and Korean text and the audio can be spliced quite soundly with a minimum duration of silence between sounds setting of 0.400 in Audacity. So, in an effort to build my deck faster I'm incorporating these sentences into my deck on the weekends and will stick to adding from the grammar books during the week. I was averaging about 5 sentences or so from each grammar lesson and with this vocabulary book I can get closer to 15 in the same amount of time.
Just to give some idea,
if made into a sentence deck MWKV alone would account for ~5,000 sentences (48 weeks * 7 days * 15 sentences/day, not accounting for any conflicts with the i + 1 strategy, which I assume will diminish this number sizably as time goes on). Assuming all the grammar points covered in the TTMIK grammar books are covered in MWKV at some point, this could end up even being a complete resource unto itself.
I can very easily imagine a strategy of a KOLUP sentence deck based solely on MWKV sentences while using the
Korean Grammar In Use books as a reference for the beginner/pre-native content phase of Korean language learning.
EDIT: I've finished adding the first week of sentences and my suspicion of diminishing return due to i + 1 adherence was correct. I have a total of 50 sentences from the first week, which if this trend keeps up would leave me with on the order of ~2,400 sentences from all 48 weeks of material, not the ~5,000 originally calculated.
