Does anything bug you about using Readlang? Add or vote on suggestions to improve it!

NOTE: Readlang is run by just one person, me, Steve. Even entire software development teams can't implement all the great ideas that they come up with, and this is doubly true in my case since I'm just a single person. So although I read all the ideas posted here, I can't possibly implement most of them. The feedback definitely helps inform my product decisions though, so please keep posting!

  1. Options to separate selected phrases

    Sometimes I don't understand a phrase but I want each word in the phrase to be a separate flash card. Could it be possible, if a phrase is selected, to cycle through the options of selecting the whole phrase, having each word as a separate selection and deselecting all, as currently when you select a word followed by another word and then tap again it switches to a single word selection again. Also a selection delay of say 3 seconds before saving a flashcard so it doesn't save duplicates because you have been trying to select a phrase?

  2. Add the option of formatting the flashcafd so the word and the English definition are both on the front of the card

    Love your site. Would it be possible for you to add the option of changing the format of the flash cards so that that definition and word are both on the front of the card? in my previous experience in learning another language the traditional format of answer on the back is too taxing and ineffective and unrewarding . I can't believe they made us make flash cards in this format during compulsory education

  4. Integrated dictionaries no longer seem to work with arabic script

    The default dictionary for arabic no longer seems to work, and my attempts to add others haven't proven fruitful so far (e.g. http://www.almaany.com/en/dict/ar-en/{{query}}).

    Any idea what might be wrong?

    Thanks for the amazing site!

  5. Please add a dictionary form to the flashcards

    For example I'm learning German. Nouns in German have one of three genders and to be able to use the word correctly, one has to know its gender. So when I'm learning words I need to learn their gender as well.

  10. Let us edit definitions

    Some definitions are misleading or missing, for example 電話 means both phone and phonecall but the translator says only "phone". It'd be fantastic if we could edit the definitions and add in our own usage notes or whatever.

    You can review and edit translations for all your words and phrases on the Word List page: http://readlang.com/words

    If a word can have two different translations I either:

    - Add both translations separated by a slash – e.g. “phone / phonecall”

    or:

    - Add a minimal amount of surrounding context to the original word to make it a short phrase which is then less ambiguous and can have just one translation.

    Hope that helps.

  11. to help learning ... an option to gradually unveil words one letter at a time

    I hope this header is sufficient to describe the idea. I presume that this is a 'valid' learning technique?

  12. Correct typos on your site

    This was written in the settings section:

    "a translation appears above each clicked word, and the dictinary shows additional translations into English"

    Notice anything wrong there. It doesn't give me a lot of confidence in your product when something that would be flagged in any spellchecker is left on your site.

  13. Learn the difference between å, ä and a

    When I am trying to do Swedish your program seems to think these are all the same letters. They are not.

    For instance, Readlang gives the same definition for håll as for hall. These are two different words.

    If the A1 lessons are so wrong how can I trust anything more difficult.

  15. The option to edit a translation direcltly when reading

    and give more than one translation to choose from judging on context.

    Also the translations are often not in the right verb tense or conjugated properly in the english (spanish to english)

  18. option to re-order word list

    It would be helpful to be able to re-order the word list in chronological or reverse chronological (or alpha) order, so we could review the words in the order we first saw them in the text, or to reverse that order. On bank statements, for example, you can click the header of a date column to do this.

    You can actually do this from the Words page by changing the dropdown that says “Recently Modified” to either:

    “Oldest”: Chronological order
    “Recently Added”: Reverse chronological order

  19. Recognize -icx- (-iĉ-) suffix for esperanto

    Although -icx- (-iĉ-) isn't official, many people use it, and it would be helpful if readlang somehow recognized this suffix and provided a translation for words that use it.
