What keeps us motivated is the feedback we get from you, our users.
Many of you contact us not only to report bugs or problems, but to tell us how they use Wokabulary to learn foreign languages. And we highly appreciate all the ideas for improvement you send us.
We are convinced that the best way to improve Wokabulary is to talk and listen to our users directly. That is why we want to make it even easier for you to tell us what features and improvements you would like to see in Wokabulary.
On our new platform
feedback.wokabulary.com
you can easily submit your ideas, as well as discuss and vote on the feature requests of others.
We hope to see a lot of engagement there, so we can base further development of Wokabulary directly on your needs.
Further improvements in this version:
- Importing of words: Now tags from the imported words will also be assigned when the imported word already exists in your vocabulary. By the way, this was a feature request from Reiner.
- We fixed a bug that would let Wokabulary crash when adding tags. Thanks to Olli for reporting this.

The term “default” originally means to fail (from Old French “defaute”). In software, default values are fallback values for when the user has ‘failed’ to input a value.
Maybe this negative connotation is why on macOS settings were never called defaults but “preferences”.
In this version we add a setting so you can adjust your preferred default value for the number of words to be selected for a quiz.
5.8.2
2022-03-11
The term "cloud" comes from the Old English word "clod", which originally denoted a heap or hill of stones. Because rain clouds look like huge piles of rocks in the sky, the term "clod" was used as a metaphor and over time replaced the older term "weolcan". "Weolcan" on the other hand has the same origin as the German word "Wolken", which is still used in German for clouds.
