As you surely want to learn the Na'vi vocabulary, I wrote a script that took the vocab from the learnnavi.org site and ordered it by the frequency of the English translations (found in a language corpus). I also have separate sets for the stress of the word only, because you also have to learn that. I will upload more sets over the time (because my script created 20 sets with 100 words each, you're going to have some fun with it)

Quizlet is a really nice website for learning stuff, just star some words (e.g. chunks of 10-20), learn them via Cards and test your knowledge via Learn.
Let's see who's going to have the highscore in Scatter!

(One minor disadvantage is that quizlet in Learn doesn't detect when two terms have the same definition, like "ayfo" and "fo" for "they", so I have to add hints were needed. If I miss some, tell me)
If I make errors, don't hesitate to correct me.

Might be a good way to cram some vocab quickly, but from what I've heard, this website doesn't incorporate any SRS. I think something like Anki (or even Memrise) would be better.

I also have few doubts about the website, but could you tell me what you mean with SRS?

I can put the script and the results on github, then everyone can generate the csv (or whatever) files for their own purpose  :)

Sorry for the late reply.
It'd be nice to be able to generate flashcards with the part of the speech, definition and IPA, whenever there is an update to the dictionary. You think you could make it compatible with Anki?

I believe this is already done. Member EzyRyder asked me for ages to do exactly this, and I finally delivered and made this: http://forum.learnnavi.org/mgallery/?sa=item;id=5585

It's a prototype to keep anki users busy until I get that file to be automated upon dictionary version change.

I'm not sure how he got that file to import correctly, but he did without too much effort, apparently.
