Handling homonyms/word with multiple meanings
Yuh Chian Ong
Currently only one card is allowed for one word spelling. However, there are words that have the same spelling.
For example, "table" is a type of furniture, but "table" can also be data presented in rows and columns, "table" can also be an action such as "tabling an agenda item".

Several meanings
Diego Willys
There are a lot of several meanings for some words, I usually do like this: meaning 1 / meaning 2 / ... And so on.
It would be easier if there was a button to add other translations and shoe them in different lines

Better English translation and option to include a longer description
Tyrantt FPV
Hi there,
Some words have multiple meanings, but the auto translate feature randomly picks one of the meanings. The AI needs to be improved to include multiple meanings when inputting a word. Choosing only a single meaning can be misleading to the user when encountering a new word with multiple meanings.
Also, it would be nice to input a longer description. On Anki, I'll put the word, each meaning for the word, multiple example sentences, related words, and the differences between the related words. Unfortunately the character limit does not allow me to do this.
I would be happy to pay for this app, but its limited compared to Anki in regards to how much you can input in the example sentence area. It needs a description box

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.

Multiple meanings of words in the card
Ibragim Karibov
It would be cool if there was an option to add multiple meanings of words with their frequency of use in the flashcard. For example, the word "log" has the meanings of both "a log" (wood) and "a journal." But currently, the flashcard only includes the translation of "log" as "a log" (wood).

Duplicated words/Homonyms

When I add a word and complement the meaning in parentheses, what is in parentheses is not omitted to identify that it is a duplicate word.
