Why custom beats generic grammar trivia

Generic lists of grammar trivia questions are fine for a quick laugh, but they seldom test the rules your class covered. The most useful grammar trivia questions come from the handout, slides or notes you already have, so every question targets something you need to know. DeckOwl reads those files and writes questions about the exact rules in them.

  • Questions generated only from the material you upload
  • Multiple choice, true/false and short answer formats
  • Explanations that teach the rule behind each answer
  • Exports to PDF, DOCX and Anki on Plus, with QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
Example grammar trivia questions with answers
Which word is a conjunction: 'although', 'quickly', 'table' or 'blue'?Although. It joins two clauses and shows contrast, while quickly is an adverb, table a noun and blue an adjective.
True or false: 'Neither of the reports is finished' is correct in standard English.True. Neither is treated as singular in standard usage, so it takes the singular verb is.
What is the standard plural of 'radius'?Radii. Radiuses is also accepted in many dictionaries, but radii is the traditional form.
Which is correct: 'Between you and I' or 'Between you and me'?Between you and me. Between is a preposition, so it takes the object pronoun me.
What figure of speech is 'The wind whispered through the pines'?Personification. The wind is given a human action, whispering.

Built from your material

Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or photos of pages, and the questions track the rules in your own course.

An explanation for every answer

Each multiple-choice, true/false or short answer question comes with a short reason, so you learn why the wrong options fail.

Review what you miss

Paid plans add spaced repetition, so the questions you get wrong return on a schedule until they stick.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add the file or photos you already have, such as a grammar handout, lecture slides or your own summary.

Pick a question format

Choose multiple choice, true/false or open questions, and DeckOwl generates them with explanations.

Study and export

Practice in the browser for free, or export to PDF, DOCX or Anki on a paid plan.

Each question is written to test one point, such as subject-verb agreement, pronoun case or the difference between a conjunction and an adverb. Explanations show why the correct answer works and why the distractors do not. Practicing ten to twenty questions in a sitting is a practical range, and returning to the same ones over several days builds lasting recall.

Frequently asked questions

What makes a grammar trivia question useful for studying?

A useful question tests one rule at a time, such as agreement or pronoun case, and has one clearly correct answer. The explanation matters as much as the question because it shows the reasoning you need on the next one.

How many grammar trivia questions should I practice at once?

Ten to twenty questions fit comfortably in one session and leave time to read each explanation. Reviewing the same set again a few days later works better than doing a long list once.

Which formats can I export to?

Plus includes export to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.

Can I try it without paying?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start. Students get 40% off with a school email.
