Word Meanings Flashcard¶
The Word Meanings flashcard test presents Spanish verbs (or their English translations) and asks you to recall the other side. You rate yourself after each card — Correct, Difficult, or Incorrect — and the app tracks your progress.
- Direction picker — choose how cards are presented:
- Spanish → Translation: you see the Spanish verb and recall the English meaning
- Translation → Spanish: you see the English meaning and recall the Spanish verb
- Mixed: both directions appear randomly
- Progress bar — fills as you work through the deck; green = correct ratio
- Card face — shows the Spanish verb (or translation, depending on direction)
- Book icon — tap to open the full conjugation table for this verb without leaving the test
- Speaker icon — tap to hear the Spanish verb (or answer) pronounced
- "Tap to reveal" — the card does not flip automatically; tap it to see the answer
Need context, not just translation?
Tap the verb (the bold word, not the card body) to open its detail view — gerundio, participio, level/frequency/topic chips, and an Examples card with three Spanish sentences plus translations. Helpful when you can't quite recall the meaning and want a usage hint before flipping the card.
After flipping¶
Once you tap the card it flips with a 3-D animation to reveal the answer. Grade yourself in either of two ways — the two are fully interchangeable:
- Swipe the card — right for Correct, left for Incorrect. The card flies off, the next one appears immediately.
- Tap a button — Correct / Difficult / Incorrect.
| Button | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Correct (green) | You knew it without hesitation |
| Difficult (orange) | You got there eventually, or were only partially right |
| Incorrect (red) | You did not know the answer or were wrong |
Difficult is button-only — there is no swipe direction for it. In the per-drill settings sheet (gear icon), the Show answer buttons toggle hides the button row entirely if you prefer swipe-only mode; in that mode, Auto-advance after correct becomes irrelevant (it greys out, because swipe always advances immediately).
Every answer is recorded in the local performance database and feeds the adaptive engine, which prioritises weaker verbs in future sessions.
At the end of the deck, a summary screen shows your Correct / Difficult / Incorrect counts and lets you start a new session.
