I recently started learning Japanese and "storing facts" using spaced repetition, and it's great for learning Hiragana / Katakana.
It's also very useful for things like passphrases.
Sometimes, you just need to memorize things.

> Abstract — There are disputes over the role of memorization in language learning. Memorized language, a mainstay of education for almost all of recorded history, was widely repudiated for suppressing creativity, understanding and enjoyment in learners. This paper aims at highlighting the fact that, despite these criticisms, memorization is a helpful strategy which can be employed by the learners and teachers in their process of language learning and teaching. It is discussed that memorization: 1) provides the learner with linguistic data; 2) is the first step to understanding; 3) enhances association in memory; 4) causes cognitive development as a learning strategy; 5) helps noticing; 6) provides rehearsal; 7) is especially helpful in early stages of learning. It is also pointed out that all these become possible when memorization is accompanied and complemented by other strategies and techniques.
Just those, huh?
This is just a tiny part of learning the language, but it's a great tool for quickly learning letters and new words.
