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. I read your post on Medium

    I like this idea for sure. I think I'd use this tool occasionally.

    Here's my use-case:
    I am Turkish. I speak and write English fluently and have no issues whereas my Spanish is not as good as my English.

    I started learning Spanish years ago in University and always continued practicing. I am fluent in speaking and reading, but I always have issues not knowing some words.

    Whenever I meet a Spanish speaking person, I practice with him/her. In web, I bump into Spanish articles and read them along.

    I think I am a good fit for the free model…

  3. Highlight unknown words

    It would be great to have the ability to highlight unknown words, as is done in LingQ. There is something very satisfying about seeing the amount of unknown words get smaller and smaller as I learn a language.

  4. Create a section for the "context.reverso.net" source

    Words, translated via the Readlang extension on various websites, that appear on the word list are inked to the "context.reverso.net" source. But there's no way to filter them from the rest of the vocabulary, like the way its possible with readlang content.
    thus its harder to edit them out when you dealing with a huge pile of translations.
    It'd be great if there were a source filter for these words

  5. Create distinction between words and phrases

    It'd be great if words and phrases are sorted as different lists so that learners can revise phrases when they need to without having to skip through a list of words.

  6. add "open in new tab" to Readlang Web Reader

    When using Web Reader I'd like to have the option "open in new tab".
    Foe example if I'm on the table of contents page of a book I don't want to lose this page by clicking only "open".

  7. Flashcards: give us the choice to hear the pronunciation after the answer is shown

    In passive mode, I prefer the audio to be played after the answer is shown, as the pronunciation is part of what's tested when learning Chinese characters. This could also be beneficial for people in general who wish to test pronunciation in other languages.

  11. Convert a highlighted sentence into a bunch of words.

    The ability to highlight a ten word sentence and then have all ten words in the sentence converted into ten different flashcards. Or highlight a ten word sentence and Readlang would save the sentence and the ten words of the sentence.

  12. Have every word in a document saved in a word bank.

    A Readlang user could upload a document to Readlang and select an option to have all the words in the text saved into a word bank. Instead of having to click on hundreds of words; users could have the one click option to covert a document or webpage into a bunch of words.

  13. The Hebrew dictionary you're using, Morfix, requires more width

    Morfix is excellent, but it requires more width, otherwise we've got an annoying horizontal scrollbar. For Hebrew, can you automatically open screens that use Morfix (like the flashcard editing screen) wider? Here's a short screen capture demonstrating the issue: http://screencast.com/t/MIN31f69x

  14. Add virtual keyboard to typing mode

    It would be great if you had an option for a virtual keyboard in typing mode (the way Google Translate supplies one), in the foreign language for folks who don't have an actual keyboard in that language. Screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/DOcq62Z3

    I'd love to have a feature that allows you to see how many words you already know in the language you're learning... like something similar to what lingq does...

  17. Ability to sort word by frequency in your chosen text

    It would be nice to be able to sort words by how often they appear in the text rather than how often they appear in the language itself. This would make it easier to read longer texts

  18. crowdsource translations and flashcards!

    I will be great if could share my flashcards and people could share theirs with me. because sometimes the translations isn't accurate, and I have to add images to it. it will be great if we all use common flashcards.

  19. Option to filter out texts with videos

    Hi, It'd be of great help if you could add a filter that can allow users to filter out texts with video content. Many of the readers (like myself) need audio feedback while reading the text in order to get the pronunciation right.

    As of now, its hard to go through the entire list to try and spot all the videos.

    Thanks!
    Adi

    This is pretty difficult to implement, but it’s not too hard to upload the contents of a Word document yourself:

    1. Open the document in Word
    2. Select all the text
    3. Right click and copy it to clipboard
    4. Open Readlang’s upload page in your browser: http://readlang.com/upload
    5. Paste the text

    The same thing will work for many (not all) PDF files using Adobe Reader or another PDF viewer.
