What this is
Free German vocabulary practice
Meet useful German words, hear them in context, and keep the ones that matter. Vokabahn runs in your browser and remembers your progress. No account or subscription needed. Sign up with Google if you want to sync progress across devices.
Study
Answer first, then rate how securely you knew it.
- Tomorrow — a new word, once you answer it right
- 3 days, then a week — each time you get it right again
- 3 weeks — and then the word counts as learned
Answering is the whole rating, so there is nothing to grade afterwards. A wrong answer moves the word one step back and returns it before the session ends, and a repeated word never inflates today's word count or earns XP twice.
Your progress
The black, red and gold route fills toward each hundred words met. Every correctly solved word is also 100 XP toward the ring's daily goal.
