PolySloth

PolySloth is supposed to simplify the acquisiton of vocabulary for aspiring polyglot and even normal language learners. Collecting and converting new words to flash cards is a tedious process. Therefore PolySloth aims to automatize big parts of a workflow to add new words to flashcards and minimize the need for human supervision.

General information

The project is written in Python and involves the following third party applications / resources:

• Todoist (todo list manager)
• Anki (flash cards)
• PONS (online dictionary)

To see what future features are planned to be included in this project, check TODO.md.

Project description

1. Add new words to a dedicated Todoist project.
2. Run a Python script involving Polysloth.
3. Take a look at the generated file to correct possible mistakes or look up words that couldn't be found in the dictionary.
4. Import the file with Anki.
5. ???
6. Profit!
