Vocabulary

Your Vocabulary is the list of words and sentences you have looked up while studying. You never type anything into it: it collects itself as you use Immersive, and it lives in your Profile, under the Vocabulary tab.

How vocabulary is collected

  • Tapping a word or sentence. Anywhere Immersive shows tappable text (the reader, example sentences on verb pages, grammar notes and exercises, comparisons), tapping a word or sentence to see its translation records it.
  • Saving it. Save to vocabulary in a word’s More panel records it and marks it as saved.

Each entry remembers how often you have seen it, so the list doubles as a record of what you keep looking up.

Browsing your list

Open Profile → Vocabulary. The list shows the language you are learning now, most recent first; the top line counts how many entries you have collected and how many you have saved. You can:

  • Search your words with the search box.
  • Filter by type: all types, words only, or sentences only.
  • Tick Saved only to see just the entries you have saved.

Each row shows the word or sentence (tap it for its translation and audio), whether it is a word or a sentence, its translation, its counts (seen, missed, reviewed), and where you met it.

The list shows the 50 most recent matching entries (“Showing 50 of 212”). To find an older one, search or filter.

Saving

Tick the entries you care about (or Select all), then:

  • Save marks them as saved, so they stand out and can be filtered with Saved only.
  • Dismiss removes the saved mark. The entries stay in the list.

Turning vocabulary into a deck

The point of collecting vocabulary is to review it. Two ways:

  • From your list: tick the words and sentences you want and choose Create a deck from selection. Immersive creates a deck named “Vocabulary” with today’s date, one card per entry, and opens it so you can check the cards before you review.
  • From a deck: in any deck’s workspace, From bookmarks adds your saved entries for that deck’s languages. See Creating decks.

If your list is empty

Vocabulary only fills as you study. The fastest way to start it is Open a document and read: every word you look up appears here. See Reading documents.
