### 2/5 — Multiple Choice

*2023-04-29, version 1.0.19*

This feels like a speed typing game. Half the time, I knew the right word but made a typo because I was rushed while typing. Maybe offer multiple choice answers to click on that correlate to the words appearing? That would also improve word recognition for vocabulary that is familiar but not mastered.

### 2/5 — Needs a segment for the words translated in english

*2022-11-30, version 1.0.18*

I was really disappointed because this app does seems like it has some potential as it does seem like an addictive game to play, but I can’t even play if I dont know what the words mean in the first place.
