Learn foreign language vocabulary with spaced-repetition, AI powered flashcards. Learn words by their frequency in or use your favorite content - Youtube, web or text to add words. Automatically get flashcards with images, cloze sentences examples and audio.
This looks useful. As I understand it, this vocabulary app represents a thoughtful attempt to improve the process of vocabulary acquisition for language learners. Congratulations on the launch!
Congratulations on the launch. I am always trying to learn a new language and might give it a try.
I was wondering how is it different compared to Anki? Aside from having a better UI and UX.
@naomigarcia Thanks! The main difference is in the way you create cards.
In Anki, you have to either create the cards yourself or get a community deck.
In Vocabuo, the cards are auto-generated with images, sentences and audio using AI and you add them from content - Youtube, websites, texts.

The app is looking amazing and helpful in learning language.

This looks dope. My grandma was the only one I spoke Spanish to, and ever since I’ve definitely forgotten parts of the language and definitely lost confidence speaking it.
I’d love to test this vs other language learning apps. Hopefully the Ai component comes in handy.

@hatertate unfortunately, within a couple minutes of using the app I found a handful of incorrect translations. I reported most of them but it was getting a bit tough having to write reports.
In a weird way it was reinforcing what I already knew in Spanish but the translation and spelling needs a bit of work.
For example:
The sentence “Please, tell me what you did yesterday” was translated to “por favor *decimi* que hiciste ayer”
Decimi isn’t a word in Spanish (to my knowledge) and possible answers that would be correct here are: Cuéntame, and dime.
You could even write this sentence a different way that might be more accurate in day to day use I suppose
“Dime que hiciste ayer”
“Cuéntame que hiciste ayer”
“Dígame lo que hizo ayer” (formal)
Despite the inaccuracies I actually love the learning method, for someone that is familiar with the language already.
@hatertate Thanks for the report! I'm working on a system in which the grammar of the sentences will be checked by multiple AIs (instead of just generated by gpt-4o). That way most of the mistakes should be eliminated soon.

@petr_kubes thanks good to hear!
As I said I love the format. Hopefully this improvement comes soon. For now I’ll just keep the app installed
