Personalized Vocabulary Acquisition System
LingQ’s vocabulary system revolutionizes how students learn new words within authentic contexts. During reading sessions, unknown words are marked in yellow. Clicking a word opens translations, example sentences, and audio pronunciation. This interaction encourages active engagement with vocabulary rather than passive memorization.
LingQ Word Tracking Method
Words saved to your personal collection become LingQs, tracked through four stages: new, familiar, learned, and mastered. This progression adjusts study focus based on word familiarity, optimizing learning efficiency.
Spaced Repetition Integration
Our spaced repetition algorithm schedules vocabulary reviews according to memory retention patterns. Words needing reinforcement appear more often in exercises, while mastered vocabulary is reviewed less frequently. This approach maximizes retention while minimizing study time.
- Flashcards with native audio
- Cloze deletion exercises in real contexts
- Multiple choice recognition tasks
- Fill-in-the-blank sentence completions
