Why a generic sample is less useful than your own quiz

A vocabulary quiz sample shows you the format, but the words that will appear on your test come from your readings, your teacher's list and your course notes. Generating a quiz from that material gives you questions that match what you actually need to learn.

Turn your own word list into a quiz in one upload
Mix multiple-choice, true/false and open questions
Read a short explanation for every answer
Retest only the words you missed until they stick

Example vocabulary quiz questions

What does the word ephemeral mean?Lasting for a very short time. The Greek root ephemeros means lasting only a day.

Which word is a synonym of benevolent: cruel, kind, distant or anxious?Kind. Benevolent describes someone who is well-meaning and generous.

True or false: loquacious means unusually quiet.False. Loquacious means talkative, so it is the opposite of quiet.

Choose the antonym of candid: honest, frank, guarded or bold.Guarded. Candid means open and direct, so guarded, meaning reserved, is the opposite.

What does the prefix mal- mean in malnutrition?Bad or poor. Malnutrition therefore means poor nutrition, usually from a lack of food or key nutrients.

Generate the full set

Three question types

Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions, so you can test recognition and recall of the same words.

Explanations for every answer

Each answer comes with a short reason, so a missed word teaches you its meaning and how it is used.

Export when you need it

Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus, or to QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro. The free plan studies in the browser.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes or a photo of a word list page.

Choose question types

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or open questions and generate your quiz.

Retest what you missed

Read the explanations, then retake the quiz until the missed words are solid.

Good vocabulary quizzes mix question types. Multiple-choice questions check whether you can pick a meaning from options, true/false questions catch confusion between similar words, and open questions make you produce the definition yourself. Explanations matter as much as the score, because they show why a wrong choice was wrong.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best way to learn vocabulary words for a test?

Write each word in a sentence of your own, then quiz yourself on its meaning and on word parts such as prefixes and roots. Retesting the words you missed works better than rereading the whole list.

How big should a vocabulary quiz be?

Keep each quiz to the words from one reading or unit, so you can see which ones you actually know. A quiz that mixes many topics makes it harder to find your weak spots.

Can I export a quiz generated here?

Yes, on paid plans. Plus includes PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.

Does the free plan include quiz generation?

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month, and you can study them in the browser. Plus gives you unlimited generations.
