Hello,  
I am quizzing on declinations of nouns (or verbs) and use a table with the different forms.  
On one row, I have the declination, on the next I show an example of how it is used in a sentence.  
I want to hide the example without quizzing on the example.

The back of the card use AwesomeTTS to pronounce only the answer. I want for it pronounce the answer and the example.

Is there an addon or some code I can use to hide some of the clozes that are on the same card?  
First c1 → quizz  
Second/Subsequent c1 → Hide, reveal with answer.

I also use the Hide All/Show One code I found on the forum to hide cloze on other cards (c2, c3… when c1 is shown).

Thanks for your help.

The front looks like this:

```auto
{{Explanation}}

{{cloze:Text}}

{{type:cloze:Text}}

<script>

inactiveClozes = document.getElementsByClassName("cloze-inactive");

for (i = 0; i<inactiveClozes.length; i++){

inactiveClozes[i].classList.add("cloze");

inactiveClozes[i].innerHTML = "[...]";

}

</script>

```

The back:

```auto
{{Explanation}}

<br> <br>

{{cloze:Text}}

{{type:cloze:Text}}

<br><br>

{{Back Extra}}

<br>

<script>

inactiveClozes = document.getElementsByClassName("cloze-inactive");

for (i = 0; i<inactiveClozes.length; i++){

inactiveClozes[i].classList.add("cloze");

}

</script>

{{tts nb_NO voices=AwesomeTTS:cloze-only:Text}}

```

Styling:

```auto
.cloze.cloze-inactive {

color: #BDBDBD !important;

}

```

Try explaining this to the AI, maybe it will understand and help. I don’t quite understand it yet. But perhaps you need this addon [https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1990296174](https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1990296174) or my modification [https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1599302255](https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1599302255)

Is that an “overlapping cloze”? I was looking into that.  
Good thinking with the LLM, somehow did not think about that.

Just try it. It might be helpful. When you don’t know a single word, a flashcard with just that word is very useful. But once you’ve learned the words, flashcards with many of those words or sentences are more useful. It’s like a word list; when you’ve already covered a topic, running through those words helps you reconstruct the entire text. Essentially, the speed reading technique uses this: you memorize keywords and then use those words to reconstruct the meaning of the text.
