R-Words.com - Memorize Foreign Words

It has long been fascinated by the study of foreign languages, looking for a program that would help more effectively memorize new foreign words. On the Internet there are many programs for this purpose, but not all of them are pleased with the great functionality. The most suitable in my opinion was the program LearnWords. But it was a commercial product, and I had to purchase a license key in the online store. When purchasing on the product page there was not any note that this key is valid only for 1 year. And after this period, you must purchase a new license. I learned this feature of the program only a year later, when the program stopped working. This fact made me very angry, because I did not understand why a program in which only cosmetic changes are made a couple of times a year must be paid annually. Therefore, there was an idea to make an analogue similar in functionality and at the same time free for the user.

So the idea arose to make the Internet service R-Words (Remember Words) for learning foreign words. After a short work (about 1 month), an alpha version with basic functionality was ready. It took another 2 weeks to “decorate” the interface and fine-tune minor bugs. And now I am ready to submit the beta version of the program to the public.

Currently the program has the following features:

• 3 exercises for memorizing words (mosaic, spelling, translation);
• “Virtual Keyboard” - is intended for entering non-standard characters of the alphabet of the language being studied (for example: à è ù ì ò, etc.);
• export and import of studied words in XML format;
• Import dictionaries from the program LearnWords to our service;

To simplify user interaction with the site, a manual page was created. Where described in detail the basic steps to work with the service. Some pages are provided with Flash videos that visually show this information.

In order to assess the capabilities of the service, it is not necessary to register. On the “demo” dictionaries created for: English, German, French, Spanish and Italian you can see how the program works. And if you like, then go through the registration procedure and start creating your own dictionaries.

Plans for the future:

• finish Windows and Linux desktop clients (currently, programs are 70-80% ready);
• do audio exercises;

PS I would be very grateful to everyone for the feedback, advice and comments on the service, which you can leave here or on the service forum. And the more I will be very happy if this service interests you and you will use it.
