Basic form of a word

Feedback

Hi, first of all, I would like to thank you for creating this website! I’m really enjoying it.

I wondered if it would be possible to show the base form of a word in the explanation section? I did notice that with verbs it does offer the infinitive form, which is amazing, but it doesn’t always happen with nouns - e.g., it doesn’t show the singular form. Plus it would be really great if the articles in gendered languages could also be displayed, like in a dictionary entry.

Thank you so much for reading/considering!

Thanks for your suggestion. I agree that adding more structured data as you’d get in a dictionary would be great.

Has there every been any discussion on using the base form as a kind of root word for a flash card?

For example:

J’ai déjà parlé avec Simon!
Tu me parles seulement quand je te vois

Clicking on parlé and parles would generate two flash cards but it would be nice for languages with lots of declensions/conjugations to just have one flash card for the base word that includes both contexts.
