Seeing a word is easier than producing it. These exercises show you a meaning and ask you to write the word yourself. Use the accent buttons to enter letters your keyboard may not have.
Keep the words you want to remember.
Choose “Save word” to add a flashcard with its meaning and example to your Word Bank. Alex will help you create a free account if you haven’t joined yet. Your saved words are available on the web and in the app.
German vocabularyA little guidance before you start
Is this free? Do I need an account?
Yes, it’s free, and you can start without an account. Create a free account only if you want to save words to your Word Bank and review them later on the web or in the app.
How many words should I practice at once?
Short sessions work best. Each round has up to 12 words. Repeat the ones you missed, then switch to another exercise or read a story that uses them.
Where do the words and sentences come from?
Every word and example sentence comes from an Inklingo story written for learners, so you practice vocabulary the way it is really used. The meanings shown are the ones the word has in those sentences.
