Vocabulary Trainer App: Practice Your Words Every Day

A vocabulary trainer is not the same as a word list. A list shows you words. A trainer asks you for them, notices what you get wrong and asks again until you know it.

What a good vocabulary trainer does

It tests you instead of letting you re-read. Recalling a word from memory is the single most effective way to keep it. A good trainer also brings missed words back sooner than words you know well, so your time goes where it is needed.

Make it a ten-minute habit

Regular short practice beats rare long practice. Open the trainer at a fixed moment, for example with your morning coffee or on the commute, and do one short round. Ten focused minutes a day add up to far more than an hour once a week.

Hear the words, do not only read them

1000 Words trains the words of its 1000-word course with quizzes and audio, so you learn how a word sounds as well as how it looks. Learning videos and audiobooks are available for many languages if you want to hear the same words again in a relaxed setting.

One trainer for many languages

The trainer works for 33 languages in the same way. Choose your course, practice a little every day and keep going; the method matters more than the amount of time you spend on any single day.
