[FEAT]: Learning languages / vocabulary with spaced repetition #726

Open SiliasGH opened 1 year ago

SiliasGH commented 1 year ago

Hi, I'm not a native english speaker, but I read a lot of english stuff. To train my vocabulary with spaced repetition it would be nice, to use this plugin.

To describe a possible solution I use the following example sentence, in which I looked up the verb "skimming": "Learning doesn’t happen from skimming through a book or remembering enough to pass a test."

After looking up the word skimming and the german translation "überfliegen" I could use a new separator, for example ";;;" to indicate that the following word is the translation, which then would look like this:

"Learning doesn’t happen from skimming;;;überfliegen through a book or remembering enough to pass a test."

The flashcard then would insert "überfliegen" at the place of "skimming" and I have to try to recall the right english word for "überfliegen" :)

Hi

Have you tried using the plug-in's "cloze" feature?

It would show the question as:

After pressing "show answer", the following would be displayed: image

The text for this is: Learning doesn’t happen from skimming {{überfliegen}} through a book or remembering enough to pass a test.

Note that in settings you need to enable one of the options: image
