How an English vocabulary quiz app helps you remember words

Vocabulary lists from class pile up fast, and cramming them the night before rarely sticks. A good option is an English vocabulary quiz app you open in your browser, which tests you on your own words instead of a generic list.

Question types: multiple-choice, true/false and short answer, each with an explanation.
Works with PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes and photos of pages.
Free plan includes 3 generations a month and studying in the browser.
Plus adds unlimited generations plus PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export.

Example English vocabulary quiz questions

What does 'ubiquitous' mean?Present or found everywhere. It comes from Latin 'ubique', meaning 'everywhere'.

Which word means lasting only a very short time: ephemeral, meticulous or candid?Ephemeral. It comes from the Greek 'ephemeros', meaning lasting a day.

True or false: 'affect' is usually a verb and 'effect' is usually a noun.True. Affect usually means to influence, and effect usually means a result.

In 'His verbose email ran for ten pages', what does 'verbose' mean?Wordy. Verbose means using more words than the situation needs.

What does the prefix 'mis-' mean in 'misjudge'?Wrongly or badly. The prefix signals an error, so misjudge means to judge incorrectly.

Three question types

Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions cover recognition and recall of new words.

Study in your browser

Open your quiz on a laptop or phone and work through it without installing anything.

How it works

Add your word list

Upload a PDF, DOCX, slides, plain text notes or a photo of a page from your textbook.

Pick a question type

Choose multiple-choice, true/false or short answer, then generate your quiz.

Quiz yourself and review

Answer each question, read the explanation, and return to the words you missed.

Quizzes work better than rereading because you have to retrieve the meaning before you see it. Explanations then show how a word is used, which helps with the context clues that matter on reading tests and in essays.

Short sessions repeated over several days usually beat one long review. Mixing multiple-choice questions with short-answer prompts gives you both quick recognition practice and the recall you need when you write.

Frequently asked questions

How many vocabulary words should a quiz cover at once?

Keep each session to a small set of words so you have time to read every explanation. Several short quizzes spread across the week usually stick better than one long session.

What is the best way to study English vocabulary with quizzes?

Answer each question before reading the explanation, then retry the words you missed a day or two later. Combining multiple-choice and short-answer questions tests both recognition and recall.

Can I export my vocabulary quizzes?

Exports are a paid feature: Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exporting.

Do I need a credit card to try it?

No, you can start on the free plan without a credit card, which includes 3 generations per month. Students with a school email get 40% off Plus.
