Thanks for the suggestion!
This shouldn't happen, everything you upload is private by default. You *can* opt to share articles if you like by clicking on them and then clicking "Share", then they are publicly visible. Otherwise, if you think an article you imported is visible to other users please let me know as it would be a bug. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

Ah, that's fine then. Luckily LingQ have a policy of free access to all their content which is extremely extensive and handily separated into various levels of difficulty. It's just you need to pay to use the functionality for saving words and phrases. Of course if one were to openly host LingQ content on another site, then they would take action. Best wishes on the development of your project! Edited by jazzboy.bebop on 09 March 2013 at 1:55am 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

Looking at some Thai text I'm not even sure how to separate the words, I've just googled it and apparently it requires a dictionary lookup just to detect the word breaks, this puts it beyond my limited resources. Very sorry! 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

Steve, this is brilliant. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to do SRS by the computer. Is there any chance of one of these three things?
1: An iPhone app 2: A mobile version of the site where you can easily practice the words 3: Option to export the deck to a format Anki could read I hate to be they guy who goes "This is great, now remake it as I tell you", but … yeah, I guess I'm that guy. Anyway, I really do like it, and might use it for Spanish (unfortunately most laguages I'm learning don't use spaces!). 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

Steve, thanks for this new web app. Looks great, and easy to use!
I have two questions: Is it possible to mark, translate, and save expressions (multi word terms)? Are there possibilities to use a better translation engine (than Google Translate)? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

Very glad you like it :) 1 & 2. Will consider an iPhone app in future. For now it is very possible to use the website from a smartphone, since it adapts to the smaller display. I usually use it on my iPad but sometimes on my android phone, where it's pretty usable but requires some annoying vertical scrolling while doing the flashcards - will look into improving this! 3. I'm very willing to put this feature in if people want it. My only concern is that the workflow of managing list export files could be annoying, and my idea with the site is to provide a nice workflow so you don't have to worry about things like this. Thanks for the feedback! 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||||||||

Thanks :) It's not possible to mark-multi word expressions while reading yet, I'm trying to think of the best UI to do this right now. For the time being, you can select one word in the reader, and then edit the card in the Words or Learn tab to include the whole expression. Definitely open to using a better translation engine, the ideal one would provide proper definitions and audio. Do you have any suggestions? (BTW: Well done with LWT, I discovered it recently and was very impressed!) 1 person has voted this message useful |
