Oh also, I miss the 'edit' button we used to have as course creators when we were learning/reviewing our own courses and spotted a mistake, made it so much easier to fix them quickly.
It would be great to have the option of a forum topic for each course too, or maybe one for a set of courses, so that problems/questions could be easily gathered in one place.
These are very much 'wishlist/would be lovely' sorts of things, for a rainy day!

    One thing that is quite urgent for my courses at least, is the option of adding alternative correct answers. I was never thrilled with the way that Memrise did it, but it served a purpose. Is that in the works, please?
    [EDIT: Never mind, I just spotted the commas separating the entries!]

    @Sarigne Yes, commas separating entries works for alt answers 🙂 You can also get slightly more complex by putting optional pieces in parentheses (e.g. (a) man should match both a man and man). That might be slightly buggy, though.

    Memrise supported having hidden alternative answers, which I think would be a nice additional feature for My Little Word Land, too 🙂

      neoncube Yeah I used to use the hidden ones quite a bit more than the visible ones. I guess I'll have to go through and remove any commas I had in the sentences. 🙂

        Audio is a must. I'm actually distraught that all the work I've put into my Memrise courses for my students is going 😓😓.

        I uploaded TTS to Memrise - if this could be done automatically, even better!

        I would love the Tetun community courses from Memrise over here.

          It's great that you want to give memrise courses a new home! I'm very grateful!

          For my courses I would like to have a column for synonyms. It is ungainly to add them all to the new word. And an other column with the first letter to give a hint which new word I want to learn, not the usual common ones! It should be seen at the test.
          Is that feasable?
          Or is it possible, that you accept any of the synonyms divided by comma or semicolon?

            Wow! Thank you for doing this. The German courses I was doing on Memrise are over here already. I have also been working on Slovenian courses which is harder to find resources for and that is where I will really miss Memrise.

            As for features, I really like the multiple choice for review when I have a large number to review, or when I am on my phone. Sometimes, with sentences, the strict typing just becomes more about memorizing things other than the actually vocab.

            Audio is also a must for me. Hearing words as I review them is so critical to me learning pronunciation.

            Multiple choice questions types are going to be a must. When this site gets going (which I think it will), I'd like to share it with my students. but they won't use it if all you can do is type.

            I'd also appreciate the ability to create groups/classes where I can assign a course (maybe with a leaderboard?).

            I'd also like to see the ability to remove a course from my dashboard and the ability to split a course into levels like Memrise.

            Thanks, everyone, for all the suggestions! 🙂

            I'm in Hong Kong this week, but hopefully we'll see some progress next week 🙂

              neoncube Great! There is a thirst in the teaching community for a Memrise-inspired app. I'm watching this space closely 🤩.

                First of all, I am so so happy you have made this, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are a good person. I have used Memrise near-daily for nearly a decade and have made many courses, I can see you have ported some of them over. To me, it already seems that MLWL may actually be more effective than Memrise reading about your review algorithm.

                Features that I think would be great:

                1. Auto-learn - many courses I have learned on Memrise I would like to continue with on MLWL, without having to relearn all words.
                2. Having course levels. (unsure whether this is only not available for courses that have been ported over).
                3. Ability to mark typing non-strictly.
                4. As others have mentioned, audio would be great.
                5. Ability to contribute financially - once this gets properly off the ground, I would be happy to contribute a small monthly amount, or perhaps a larger one-off amount if that's better.

                Thank you again very much for creating this.

                Hello!

                First of all, a huge thank you for taking up the baton that Memrise is sadly passing on!

                My pride and joy Memrise course was https://mylittlewordland.com/course/44431 or https://app.memrise.com/community/course/192612/eesti-tere-tere-jalle-ene-knk-ks-a0-b2/ , which on Memrise has 154 levels and 13042 words, and which here has 8276 words.

                For me one of the things that made Memrise stand apart from all the others (apart from the perfect mix of making you think during reviews but also being really forgiving and non-perfectionist) was ability to put the same word in more than one level in a course. This means that you can separate chapters in books and review only what you need to, or learn only what you don't know before looking at a chapter of a book.

                Is it something you might ever consider? I realise that this adds a whole new level of complexity to the database thing, and I'm wondering if what I actually need to do is create my own "Barry's Estonian Course" specific Android app.

                In more realistic wishes:
                - could there be an ignore accents mode?

                - could I get the ability to edit the courses that were created by Barrybounce02?

                Being able to add short mp3 audio files to my course is so important as I'm learning a tonal language !

                neoncube do you have a timeline as to when new features will be available? I'm currently switching to Duocards whilst I wait.

                  I'd love the ability to create a class/study group so I can assign sets and view activity of my students.
