Approve new words from quotes
Quotes feed a new-word inbox on the Language page. Approve, merge into an existing word, or reject. Approved words count per language and set first-word dates.
Goal: a vocabulary per language that means something. Parents only.
Steps#
- Go to Progress › Language.
- Under New-word inbox, each row shows the word, the language, and the quote it came from.
- Tap ✓ to approve, merge to fold it into an existing word (pick it from the list), or ✕ to reject.
Rows disappear as you decide. The inbox says Inbox empty when you are done.
What approval changes#
- Vocabulary (words logged) counts per language, with a four-week delta and a sparkline.
- First words: the earliest approved word per language with its date.
- The monthly check for a vocabulary stall (no new words for six weeks) uses approved words only.
- The She said timeline shows each quote with its new words.
During the monthly review#
Step 2, Vocab check, asks you to confirm the inbox is reviewed and links here.
FAQ
Why is every Thaana word suggested?
Dhivehi has no stop-word list, so every Thaana token is a candidate. Approve the real words and reject the rest; it takes seconds.
What is merge for?
A variant of a word you already approved, for example a plural or a misspelling. Merging keeps one entry and one first-word date.
