Loading the tool…

Picks 5, 10 or 20 words a day and shows each with its meaning and pronunciation. Check yourself with a multiple-choice quiz, then send the set to the flash drill for spaced review.

How to use

  1. Choose the "Language I am learning" and "Language I know", then set "Words per day" and a "Topic".
  2. Press "Listen" on a card for its pronunciation, or "Listen to all" to hear today's words in turn.
  3. Take the quiz with "See the word, pick the meaning" or "See the meaning, pick the word"; the result lists the words you missed.
  4. Press "Send to flash drill" to add today's words to a deck in the flash drill tool.
  5. If a meaning looks wrong, press "Looks wrong" to send a correction request.

How it works

Questions and answers

Do the words change when I change the count?
Yes. Each count and topic combination has its own set for the day. Returning to the same combination brings the same words back.
Can I review only the words I missed?
The quiz result lists them. For repeated review, send today's words to the flash drill; cards you mark as missed there come back first.
How do the Latin American Spanish words differ?
Only words that differ by region are written separately, such as carro and coche, celular and móvil, computadora and ordenador. The rest are shared.
