www.glosorna.de - Swedish-German vocabulary trainer
→ Read the complete article...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 and the admin
How do I set a foreign key to User to automatically be filled in with request.user? James Bennett explains what is "probably the #1 most-frequently-asked question about the admin". Also: how to ensure that people can only see/edit things they “own” (i.e., that they created) in the admin.Link added on 2009-01-09 -
