Revision Games

It’s simple – add words, practice with games, and learn! After activation, each user will see individualized content: a personalized dictionary. Firstly, the user needs to create groups related to a specific subject. Then, he needs to add words with their translations within the group. Then, comes the fun part: Vocabulary quizzes!
There are two types of games available yet: Find the Translation and Find the Word. In the first case, you need to find the right translation amongst a list of four possible answers. While during the second vocabulary game, you need to find the right word amongst a list of four possible answers.

Find the Translations Game

Learning a new language is now even easier with the Personal Dictionary plugin. The users now can learn the words in a fun way. All they need to do is to find the translation of the new word in their own language.

Find the Word Game

The “Find the Word” game in the Personal Dictionary plugin, is an engaging word search activity designed to challenge users’ lexical and observational skills. This game is not only entertaining but also serves as an effective tool for enhancing vocabulary and problem-solving skills. With its user-friendly interface and word challenges, the “Find the Word” game in the Personal Dictionary plugin provides a dynamic and enjoyable way for users to enlarge their language abilities while having fun.

Matching Words Game [Pro](https://ays-pro.com/wordpress/personal-dictionary)

The Matching Words game available in the WordPress Dictionary plugin, offers an engaging and educational experience for users looking to enrich their vocabulary and word-learning skills. This interactive game presents players with a set of word pairs, challenging them to identify and match words with their corresponding counterparts.

Calculation

Most probably you are asking yourself – after how many attempts the word is considered as already learned? It’s all up to you. You need to define the following inputs: Learnt points, Right answer points, and Wrong answer points. To give you an idea, let’s assign 10 to the Learnt points, 1 to the Right, and 0.23 to the Wrong one. When the student answers a question 10 times correctly(10 x 1), then the given word will be considered already learned and will not appear in games anymore. Anyway, it will remain in the word bank, and the user can reset it anytime. This is the best way for engaging students, isn’t it?

Easy-to-use

The simplest plugin ever! Your users can easily create their personal digital dictionaries within a few minutes. It has the most intuitive interface and runs smoothly on all devices: computers, tablets, and mobile devices.
The team behind the plugin carefully considers all the details to make the dictionary creating process much easier and quicker. You can build new words and groups by just tapping Enter key on your keyboard. Moreover, the word games plugin works mainly without reloading the page. We know – time is the scarcest resource, particularly during university life!

Memory Games

Online memory games and vocabulary games can improve learning proccess by making it more creative and efficient. They help students better remember what they’ve learned.
In addition to online courses, quizzes and exams, you could use flashcard games to remember vocabulary words and phrases.

You can explore a demo by following this dictionary plugin demo link.
Upgrading to the dictionary plugin pro version provides additional features, such as analyitics, leaderboard, matching words game, words importing and access to a wider range of memory games and exercises.

Personal dictionary APP vs Plugin

For learning new words, students usually write them in their notepads, which is not always convenient and flexible to use. However, in this modern era, opportunities are plenty such as personal dictionary apps or personal dictionary software. Let’s see our advantages over them:

  • Tracking Leaderboard for calculating activity and participation grade of students
  • Interactive tool for boosting your website traffic
  • Analysis via charts, line charts, and statistics.

Glossary VS Dictionary

Let’s find out the difference between glossaries and dictionaries. A glossary is a list of terms referring to a particular subject in alphabetical order. On the other hand, a dictionary is a word pool with its corresponding meanings, translation, or explanation; for instance, Oxford English Dictionary or Cambridge dictionary.
Our plugin is WordPress lingo for all motivated language learners.
