Everword: learn unfamiliar words with Evernote

As you may remember, a month ago we announced a competition to create the best application integrated with Evernote. The winner could count not only on our help in developing and promoting his product, but also on Evernote's 100 quarterly premium subscriptions to attract the first users of the new application. Within a month we accepted applications from developers and today are ready to announce the winner.

So, the most interesting to us was the Everword application from Soloten .

It is available on Windows, but soon the developers promise a version for Mac, as well as a Russian-language interface. However, it is quite understandable in English. Everword solves a very common problem. Many of us are familiar with the situation when, while reading a text on a computer, we come across an unfamiliar foreign word. You can ignore the gap in knowledge and sometimes guess the meaning of a word from the context. You can search for a translation in an electronic or paper dictionary. You can write the word and promise yourself to learn it in the future. Everword offers to get out of the situation in a more efficient way.

You highlight a word and press the desired key combination (you can customize it) to see the meaning of the word using Eveword, using those dictionaries that you added to the application earlier. The application allows you to add any number of dictionaries in the standard XDXF format, so that you can find what you need on the Internet for the language you are learning and in which you read the texts.



In addition, the application allows you to immediately add an unfamiliar word in a special notebook Evernote, providing the necessary labels. So you quickly and conveniently make a selection of words that are worth learning.



Having a selection of words to learn in your Evernote account, you can repeat them at any free minute, for example, when you are on the subway, opening Evernote on your phone. When you feel ready, you can take the exam and test your knowledge using the same Everword.



The developers also emphasize the unique word ranking algorithm in the application, which should help to learn a new language as quickly and directly as possible in the process of reading foreign texts.
