Allow correction of a mistyped answer (simple typo's)
there is no way to correct a minor typo after an answer was checked and found wrong. one can only go to the next card.
why not leave the card in unanswered/edit mode again...
https://i.postimg.cc/gj772WPf/screenshot-685.png2 votesIf you got the card wrong, it will resurface later within the same flashcard session, giving you a chance to test yourself again and try to get it correct without the typo. Do you think this is OK?

Audio on a card in typing mode
Smply enable the speaker button on the flashcard in typing mode(or even in guess mode)
So you can firsyt listen to the answer, then type it correctly spelled.
(the speaker button is now only enabled after giving the answer)
https://i.postimg.cc/jdhNT5qn/screenshot-684.png1 voteThe idea of the typing mode in the flashcards is to test your recall of the word/phrase. If you get to hear the pronunciation then it's less a test of recall and more of a listening practice. This could be valuable too! I'm going to look at overhauling the flashcards and/or creating new learning experiences this year, so I'll certainly consider this!

The synching of words from videos doesn't work anymore. Something weird happened from interface programmer's end.
I dedicated. lot of time synching the words with the video I managed to find, including the proper text subtitles and now it seems all the synch is off phase. This is a new issue and I 'm using read langue specifically for this synch text-video option. Now I'm in stand by. Can this be solved?
1 voteSorry about this. Nothing has changed on Readlang's end related to this, but maybe something changed on YouTube's end? I just tried in Chrome for macOS and it seems to work for me.
Please can you let me know which device and browser (with version number if possible) you are using. Also any other information which might help to investigate it.

Fix highlighting when it includes markdown/italicized text
At the moment, highlighting a phrase for translation fails when it includes both regular text and formatted text. If a sentence says, e.g., "I can't believe it was her idea" (raw text:
I can't believe it was *her idea*
), trying to select the whole phrase won't work.3 votes -
Place a Next Page link on top of the page
Sometimes we don't need to scroll down to the bottom page if we just want to click to the next page. Its faster and easier to jump from page to page.
1 voteMaybe I'm misunderstanding something here, but how do you know you want to navigate to the next page to find what you're looking for if you haven't scrolled down to see all the results on the first page? How do you know that what you're looking for is at the bottom of the first page?
Is it that you've visited the page recently and therefore are pretty confident about where to locate the text you're looking for?
Could there be a different solution that would make the result you are looking for appear on the first page of results? e.g. a filter to hide completed texts maybe?

Add Interlinear Text Option to support Bilingual Text
Hi,
Would it be possible to add in a premium option to make an interlinear text of the current page or the whole reading? Right now, I spend a lot of time curating my word list, because it creates a card from every translation that I do. An interlinear text will allow me to see the full sentence translations without creating cards and select the phrase or word that I want to turn into a card. This would also partially address some of the other ideas for bilingual texts.
I've started converting text to be interlinear and entering it into…

Use "Enhanced" and "Premium" built-in macOS voices when available
In macOS it's possible to download additional voices through the settings. Those voices offer a much more natural pronunciation compared to the basic versions at the cost of a larger file size. Even when those voices are downloaded, they are not available in the Readlang settings for premium users. If you could make those somehow available, it would mean a massive QoL improvement.
When available (not the case for all voices), the names of those voices are the name of the basic variant with " (Enhanced)" or " (Premium)" added to it, e.g. "Thomas (Enhanced)" or "Amélie (Premium)". Thanks!
1 voteThanks for the suggestion! I've just tried this and I managed to get the enhanced version of the Spanish voice Monica to show up in Google Chrome and Firefox, but for some reason not on Safari.
I also tried the installing the Spanish Siri voice but couldn't get that to show up in any browser.
Sorry I'm not sure exactly why this is the case, but I agree that offering a choice of more high quality voices would be good!

Payment method: iDEAL
Can you add iDEAL as a payment method to your options? You only have the option to pay by credit card and link. The link does not give the option to pay with iDEAL. iDEAL is a very common and reliable payment portal in the Netherlands, we always use it.

Make your own flash cards
I would really love the ability to turn off auto generated flashcards and tell readlang when I want a flashcard made. Because it auto generates them, I find that it creates way too many flashcards and it's impossible for me to review them all. This means I have to go through and delete many of the auto generated flashcards, which is tedious and ineffective.
1 votePlease check out this mode allowing you to delete flashcards very easily while reading which isn't exactly what you're asking for but may help: https://blog.readlang.com/2023/06/09/delete-on-untranslate.html

Making the link between "words" (flashcards) to "sentences built by me" and linking to the "duome.eu" sentence discussion forums ....
like the title said:
with a flashcard on the screen, with the word that I just learned, I am ready to try out making new, my own, sentences using that word.so I'd write a sentence of my own, system would check for "semantic" meaning, would propose a better way to say it in the target language.
Next I'd be prompted to change any of the words used, like changing a noun (other gender), use another pronoun, changing singular/plurals, changing verb, changing verb tense, change sentence style (affirmative, negation, question) and see the effect of this on the sentence i…

Expand speaking mode to include Icelandic
The only thing holding me back from getting a premium subscription is that my target language is not included in speaking mode. I am looking to make the jump from lingq to readlang and the only thing holding me back is the inability to hear my target language being spoken when I highlight a word or practice a flashcard. I know Icelandic is very niche and not many people speak it, so I understand why it is not included, but if you were able to add it you would definitely have a new paying customer. Thank you for everything you…

Searching for French texts and getting Spanish?
I'm currently looking for French fiction, difficulty B2 to C2, and the top result is in En el aeropuerto. Beneath is a french article followed by En la Escuela. Is this only on my end or is there an issue with the search algorithm?

I'd like to have the possibility to increase the value of the daily target.
The defoult value is insignificant for me, because I read a lot.
1 voteThanks for the suggestion!
It makes a lot of sense. That said, for now, for simplicity, I want to keep the daily streak standard and something small but meaningful. But longer term I absolutely would like a way to incentivise people who want to study more intensely. Whether that is via an increased daily streak target or something else.
So I do plan to revisit this at some point! (I don't like to make concrete promises though given that I have a long todo list already)

Changing the voice of the main reader and the Word translaters. Also the flash cards should be audible too.
Basically to have more realistic accents. I am learning Mexican spanish and I am finding differences in both sentence constructions and phonemic sounds between Readlang and native speakers.
I should say also, Readlang is the best thing since sliced bread for language learning. It's like the best of Anki without the aggravation.
1 voteThanks for your feedback! Great to hear that you're finding it useful.
Premium subscribers are able to change the voice via the AA tab in the sidebar as shown here: https://blog.readlang.com/2023/09/28/read-aloud.html. Which voices are available will very much depend on your device and browser though.

Set flashcard mode as Passive for chosen texts
At present flashcard mode (Active or Passive or Active & Passive) is set globally. I’d like to set vocab for some texts - books for ‘extensive’ reading - as passive only. Is this something that would be possible?
1 voteInteresting idea! Thanks for sharing! I can't make any promises about implementing this at the moment but I can see how it would be useful.
