What does 'perfunctory' mean?Done carelessly or with minimal effort. A perfunctory nod acknowledges someone without real interest.

Which word means speaking to a small group only, such as specialists, rather than the general public?Esoteric. It describes knowledge understood or meant for a narrow, specialized audience.

Generate the full set

Multiple choice, true/false and open questions

Mix question types so you test recognition and then recall of the word's meaning, not just a single format.

Answers with explanations

Every item shows the correct answer and a short reason it fits, so you learn the word in context instead of memorizing a letter.

Export when you need a printout

Plus exports PDF and DOCX for handouts or printing. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning systems.

How it works

Add your source

Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain notes, or a photo of a page.

Choose a question type

Pick multiple choice, true/false, or open questions for the quiz.

Check answers and retry

Read each explanation, then go back to the words you missed until they stick.

Each question comes with a short explanation that ties the answer to context, which helps advanced words stick better than a bare answer key. Multiple choice, true/false and open questions let you test recognition first and then production.

Use the quiz as a warm-up before a reading or as a check afterward: answer first, read the explanation, then retry anything you missed. The free plan includes three generations per month and browser study.

Frequently asked questions

How many advanced vocabulary words should one quiz cover?

Eight to fifteen words is a workable range for most students, because it leaves time to read each explanation. Repeating the same words across several short quizzes usually works better than one long test.

Should I guess before checking the answer?

Yes, try each question before reading the answer, since guessing and then checking shows you which context clues you missed. Read the explanation and note the word part or sentence clue that gave the meaning away.

Can I export the quiz?

PDF and DOCX export are included in Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are part of Pro. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.

Is there a free plan to try this?

Yes, the free plan includes three generations per month and browser study. You do not need a credit card to start.
