@fortelabs writes about using progressive highlighting/summarization techniques in Evernote for anti-spaced (stigmergic) repetition, see here for instancehttps://evernote.com/blog/tiago-fortes-approach-to-productivity/ … -

Your description of "anti-spaced-repetition" is fortuitously spaced for me--the concept might map very well to learning foreign language from a corpus of sentences. Anki is awkward for exactly the reasons you mention.

For sentence context (or is this Cloze deletion?), you might like the idea of 'programmable flash cards' too. Why use a fixed sentence? There must be many semantically equivalent transformations using a particular word.
