Learning German and Swedish at the same time
German and Swedish share 1738 meanings in our vocabulary catalog. That overlap is the reason studying them together works and the reason it goes wrong: the same meaning in two close languages is a head start when the words align and a trap when they nearly do.

Keeping them apart
Because German and Swedish are closely related, reviews here deliberately do not introduce the same meaning in both on the same day, and never place two cards for one meaning back to back in a session. You can also have prompts shown in one of them while you study the other.
