Why a custom quiz beats a generic one

Many teachers and students want a ready-made vocabulary quiz unit 1, but a generic worksheet rarely matches the words your class covered that week. A quiz made from your own material tests exactly what you need to know.

  • Questions come from your own unit 1 word list, not a generic bank
  • Multiple choice, true/false and short answer formats are available
  • Every answer includes an explanation of why it is correct
  • Free plan includes 3 generations per month with browser study
Example vocabulary unit 1 quiz questions
What does the word "benevolent" mean?Kind and well-meaning. It comes from Latin roots meaning "well" and "wishing," which matches its sense of wanting good for others.
Which word is closest in meaning to "candid"?Honest. Candid means speaking openly and truthfully, even when the truth is uncomfortable.
What does the root "bio" mean?Life. It appears in biology, the study of living things, and in biography, a written account of a life.
True or false: "ambiguous" means having only one clear meaning.False. Ambiguous means open to more than one interpretation, which is the opposite of a single clear meaning.
What does the prefix "mis-" mean in "misinterpret"?Wrongly or badly. To misinterpret something is to understand it incorrectly.

Frequently asked questions

How should I study vocabulary for a unit 1 quiz?

Write each word with its definition and one sentence that uses it. Test yourself on the definitions before you check the word list, and repeat the words you miss the next day.

What is the best way to remember new vocabulary words?

Spaced repetition works well because it shows words again just before you would forget them. Pair each word with a memorable example or a word root to make it stick.

Is there a free way to make a vocabulary quiz?

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and lets you study in the browser. Exporting to PDF or DOCX requires a paid plan.

Can I export my quiz to Word or a Moodle course?

Plus exports PDF and DOCX, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems. Students get 40% off with a school email.
