homonyms

use AI to suggest homonyms and similar sounding words of target language word. It's a big cause of confusion for a learner when jus one vowel or one consonant changes the meaning of a word. If AI can add these related words, I will be able to learn to differentiate among them.

Great idea. Iam studying Korean and just word 쓰다 has more than 10 meanings, to wear, to write, to taste bitter, to use, to cover, to protect.. but i can use it as card only once.

Hello, I'm not sure I understand right. Could you clarify, please? Michaela from DuoCards

Michaela When creating a new word to learn, the app informs you if it already exists. However, issues arise when a word has multiple meanings, such as 'bat' (animal) and 'bat' (sports equipment). If you've previously created both words, attempting to create 'bat' again doesn't prompt the app to acknowledge its existing presence, nor does it display variations (e.g., bat [animal] / bat [sports]).

Nov 11, 2024

When adding a new word to learn, the app checks for duplicates. But for words with multiple definitions, like 'bat' (animal) and 'bat' (sports), the app doesn't recognize existing entries or provide disambiguation (e.g., bat [animal] / bat [sports]) if you've already created both separately.

Michaela Additionally, when seeking more information or the definition of a word, the app fails to provide results if the word has additional text within parentheses. In summary, the parentheses are being considered when searching for the word's meaning or additional information, which prevents the app from retrieving the desired information.

if someone is learning English and they have a card with the word "weather", duocard should also show the user " whether" meaning " if - they sound the same, but mean something different and mean something different. In Japanese, the word はし it can mean a bridge 橋 or it can mean chopsticks 箸. I am learning Hebrew. I get mixed up between many similar words that teachers say I can only know the difference by context. I want to know the other possibilities for the same sound/pronunciation so I can be aware there's more than one meaning. One way to do this is: you have the audio for a word, so user can maybe click to add other meanings with different spellings or, in case of Hebrew, just different vowels. The purpose is to help verbal skill. I hope this helps.

hey חנה, could you elaborate, what exactly should the AI show and when? Thanks
