How an AI vocabulary test is built

Teachers and students often want a vocabulary quiz that uses the exact words from this week's reading, and an AI vocabulary test maker can build one from that material in a few minutes.

Multiple choice items with plausible wrong answers and explanations
True/false statements that check recall of word definitions
Short answer prompts that ask for a word's meaning in your own words
Exports to PDF or DOCX on Plus, and QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML on Pro

Example vocabulary test questions

Which word means lasting only a short time? A) ephemeral B) perennial C) dormant D) abundantA) ephemeral. It comes from a Greek root meaning lasting a day, so it describes things that do not last.

True or false: benevolent describes someone who is kind and generous.True. Benevolent means well-meaning and kindly, the opposite of malevolent.

Choose the best word: The senator's ___ speech convinced even her opponents. (eloquent / verbose)Eloquent. It means fluent and persuasive, while verbose means using more words than the idea needs.

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

Define candid in your own words.Open and truthful, saying what you really think. A strong answer also notes that candid is not the same as rude.

Questions from your words

The test uses the vocabulary in your own list or text, so it matches what you were assigned.

Three question types

Multiple choice, true/false and short answer, with an explanation for every answer.

Export when you need it

Save to PDF or DOCX on Plus, or export QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro for your learning system.

How it works

Add your words

Upload a PDF, DOCX, slides, plain text or a photo of a word list.

Choose the format

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer questions for the test.

Study or export

Practice in the browser on the free plan, or export your test on Plus or Pro.

The tool reads your word list or passage, picks the key terms and writes questions that check meaning, such as matching a word to its definition or choosing the right word for a sentence. Each answer comes with a short explanation, so a wrong answer becomes a review moment instead of just a score.

Because the questions come from your own material, the test stays aligned with what was assigned. Review the questions before you share them, since any AI output can contain errors.

Frequently asked questions

How many words should a vocabulary test include?

Most short quizzes work well with 10 to 20 words, so a student can finish in one sitting and review every miss. Start with the words your teacher or textbook highlighted.

What is the best way to study vocabulary for a test?

Use retrieval practice: cover the definition, try to recall it, then check. Spacing the review over several days works better than one long cram session.

Can I export the test to Moodle or another learning system?

Moodle XML and QTI 2.1 export are included on the Pro plan. PDF and DOCX export are available on Plus, and the free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.

Is the free plan enough to try it?

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