DICTIONARY
- Where are the word definitions, examples, and pronunciations from?
- Why don't I get search results for certain words?
- I noticed an error in one of the words. What should I do?
- Can the daily Word of the Day be adapted / personalized to my skill / knowledge?
The word details come from a mix of sources. Some are reputable and widely-recognized publishers known for their comprehensive language research and academic credibility. Sources are frequently consulted by both educators and language learners.
Some words don't show results because they are slang words, uncommon acronyms, or words with vulgar meanings not found in standard dictionaries. If nothing comes up, refresh to check other sources.
We strive for accurate results but cannot guarantee it. Occasional errors may occur. Tap "!" on the top right within word details to contact support and report errors. Attach a screenshot if possible.
At this time, you cannot adjust the Word of the Day to your skill or knowledge. You can expect personalized word of the day in a future update. See upcoming features here: www.vocabulistapp.com/features.
GAMES
- How do practice modes differ from daily challenges?
- When is the daily game released each day?
- The timer is too fast. Can I change it?
- I want to be able to set the difficulty of the daily game, can I?
- I noticed an error in one of the games. What should I do?
Practice modes adapt to your skill level and let you play unlimited times, while daily challenges are the same for all users that day.
The daily game is released each day at midnight.
You can adjust the timer (up to 1 minute) in settings.
If the daily game words are too easy or too difficult, you can use the practice mode which will adapt to your skill level, or use the favorites mode if you only want specific words. At this time, you cannot set the difficulty level of the game. You can expect to see this in a future update.
We aim for accurate game questions and answers, but cannot guarantee it. Occasional errors may occur. Go to settings in the App and tap "Contact Support / Report Bugs" to report errors. Attach a screenshot if possible.
