Lexicum.net

Lexicum is a tool that helps you expand your foreign language vocabulary. It helps both learners attending a language class, and experienced speakers that casually encounter a new word.

The dictionary embedded in Lexicum is as easy to use as the one you might be used to. Yet, with Lexicum you collect your word list as you use it. This is where you start getting help not only to look up words, but also to grow them into your own vocabulary. Unlike dictionaries, in Lexicum you can improve or add notes to your translation so that it better matches the specific encounter you had with the particular word.

Also, with Lexicum you can work on memorising and refreshing your words. We build on the well-established technique of spaced repetition aiding your learning process in the background. What you see is a familiar flashcard-like quiz. In contrast to the traditional flashcards, however, with Lexicum each pass is logged, so you can visualise even the slightest progress that you make.

Coming up next, Lexicum will allow you to exchange and share words with others. For those of you that learn in class, this would allow you to get the words from a new lesson prepared by your teacher. If you are learning for fun this will make it possible for you to show your progress to others, and even engage in some popular word games.
