Description

Create language learning flashcards based on Stephen Krashen's i+1 Input Hypothesis.

What It Does

This add-on automates the creation of high-quality language cards by translating words instantly within their context. It adheres to the i+1 principle: learning one new word (the +1) contained within a sentence you already understand (the i).

Useful when you:

  • Are "sentence mining" while reading books or articles.
  • Want to convert vocabulary lists into context-rich cards.
  • Are building decks from graded readers.
  • Need a fast way to generate immersion materials.

Features

  • Automatic Translation: Instantly translates target words to English using a free API (supports 14+ languages).
  • Batch Creation Mode: Put words in [brackets] to generate multiple cards at once (e.g., El gato [duerme] en el sofá.).
  • Zero Setup: No API keys, tokens, or external installations required.
  • Simple Format: Creates clean cards automatically (Front: Sentence with blank; Back: Target word + translation).
  • Offline Ready: Internet is only required to create the card; reviews work fully offline.

Installation

  1. Open Anki.
  2. Go to Tools > Add-ons.
  3. Click Get Add-ons...
  4. Enter code: (16972895)
  5. Click OK and restart Anki.

Setup

This add-on requires no configuration or API keys.

After installing, simply open the add-on window and select your target language from the dropdown menu. Supported languages include Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Dutch, Polish, and Turkish.

Usage

  1. Select your target language from the dropdown.
  2. Type or paste sentences with the target word inside brackets.
    • Example: Je [mange] une pomme.
  3. Click Create All.
  4. The add-on automatically translates the bracketed words and generates your cards.
  5. Review your new cards in the deck.

Notes

  • Requires an internet connection during card creation (for translation).
  • Once created, cards are stored locally and work offline.
  • Compatible with Anki 2.1.50+.
