www.glosorna.de - Swedish-German vocabulary trainer

After a long time in the making: here it is, the new Swedish-German vocabulary trainer.

While the first version was basically just a dictionary containing my own private and rather incomplete collection of vocabulary entries, I have now added vocabulary training functionality. Some of the features include:

User registration (done with django-registration)
Classification of vocabulary entries by three levels (basic, advanced, special vocabulary) and by tags.
The user can add arbitrary cards to his favorites list (from the search results or during training).
Flexible selection of cards to be trained:
- Level
- Favorites
- Tags
- Cards with lowest score or cards that have not been trained for the longest time
The training scheme is based on the concept of "vocabulary stacks".
During training, each vocabulary card is assigned a score according to how well the user remembered the card.

Users should register an account to use the training features, because then the application can keep track of a score and and an 'age' for each card. There's also a guest account for everyone to try out: username 'gast', password 'test'.

I still adhere to the principle that only I can add and edit vocabulary entries. For a vocabulary training application to be useful, its data base of vocabulary must be entered in a very consistent way. There must not, for instance, be duplicate Swedish translations for a given German term. This makes my app quite different from a normal dictionary, where duplicates are the norm. But I hope it's still useful for dictionary lookup.
