How a vocabulary quiz helps you remember words

Vocabulary sticks better when you are asked to recall or choose a word, not just reread a list. This free online vocabulary quiz maker turns your own word lists, glossary pages, or reading notes into practice questions in a few minutes.

  • Test words in context, not only as isolated definitions.
  • Mix multiple-choice and true/false so you practice recognition and recall.
  • Read the explanation after every answer, right or wrong.
  • Retake missed words after a day or two to move them into long-term memory.

How it works

Pick a question type

Choose multiple-choice, true/false, or open questions, then generate a quiz from your material.

Answer and review

Take the quiz, read the explanation for each miss, and retake the words you got wrong.

Multiple-choice questions work well for vocabulary because the wrong options are close in meaning, which forces you to notice the small differences between words. True/false questions are useful for checking whether you know the difference between a word and its antonym.
