一举两得 is pronounced yìjǔliǎngdé and means “Sekali mendayung dua tiga pulau terlampaui”. HSK 6 is where this word sits in the Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi, the exam used to grade Chinese proficiency. Reading 一举两得 and remembering it are not the same achievement: the first fades within days unless the second is practised. LexiTrail times each review to the edge of forgetting, which is where a repetition is worth the most.
