Japka

Japka is a vocabulary trainer from the language school Jazykovka Krumlov. It is not a ready-made course with ready-made lessons: you bring the words to it - and Japka will teach you them, from the first acquaintance to writing and pronouncing them aloud.

WHERE DO THE WORDS COME FROM
• Do you go to Jazykovka Krumlov? The vocabulary for each lesson is prepared for you by the teacher. You join the class with a QR code that he or she gives you.

• Do you learn on your own? Create your own set: write the words, insert the entire list at once (from a textbook, from Excel), or let artificial intelligence suggest them according to the topic and your level. The pronunciation will be filled in automatically. After registration, the application is empty until you have the words in it - but you can master the first set in a minute.

SIX WAYS TO LEARN
• Click & Match – warm-up pairing of pairs for a time with a leaderboard
• Study – choosing the correct translation; but first you try to remember it yourself
• Write it – writing a translation with a tolerance for minor typos
• Say it – say the answer out loud, the application listens to you
• Flip Cards and Flash Review – flashcards and a quick overview for familiarization

SMART REPETITION
The application monitors how you are doing with each word and, based on the forgetting curve, offers it for repetition exactly when you would start to forget it. The total repetition will create a batch of words that are just the time to revive – and also adds a short writing or speaking practice.

YOUR VOCABULARY
• Custom vocabulary sets: enter manually, insert the entire list, or get suggestions from AI based on topic and level
• Naughty words – mark what doesn't work with a heart; and the application will take care of what bothers you repeatedly
• Pronunciation for each word in a natural voice

MOTIVATION THAT DOESN'T ANNOY
• A string of learning days with medals 🥉🥈🥇 (and a freezer that forgives one missed day)
• Optional evening reminders by e-mail when vocabulary is waiting for you

Registration is free and ad-free. You can save up to 100 of your own vocabulary for free; students of Jazykovka Krumlov have their own vocabulary without restrictions for the entire duration of their studies.
