Wordana

Language practice that keeps moving

Practice English phrases with spaced repetition, listening, and repeat-aloud drills.

Wordana is a focused web app for turning vocabulary lists into short speaking sessions. It prompts you at an interval, plays a phrase and usage example, and lets you repeat aloud until the words feel natural.

What Wordana Does

Wordana helps you practice useful English words, phrases, and examples in small recurring sessions. Instead of staring at a long list, you get one card at a time: the phrase, its translation, an example sentence, and controls to repeat, move to another example, or continue to the next phrase.

The app is intentionally quiet: it is built for repeated use while you work, study, or keep a browser tab open in the background.

Spaced repetition

Choose an interval and Wordana keeps surfacing the next phrase, so review happens in short, consistent loops.

Listen and repeat

Hear the phrase and example, then repeat them aloud. You can replay a word, a phrase, or an example whenever you need another pass.

Personal progress

Mark familiar cards as learned and restore them later. Your lists, settings, hidden cards, and daily shuffle state are stored per user.

A Simple Practice Flow

1
Select a word list.
Pick the collection you want to practice today, from irregular verbs to everyday phrases.
2
Listen to the phrase.
Wordana plays the phrase and, when enabled, a usage example in the selected English voice.
3
Repeat it aloud.
Use repeat and loop controls to drill the phrase until the rhythm and pronunciation feel easier.
4
Let the interval bring it back.
Keep practicing at your chosen cadence, with a daily cached shuffle so each user gets a stable order for the day.

Built for Browser-Based Practice

Wordana runs as a web app, so it can work locally, on a VPS, or from a phone on the same network. Audio playback is handled by the browser while the server prepares cards, stores per-user settings, and serves cached speech audio when Piper voices are used.

The goal is not to grade every sound you make. The goal is repetition: hearing natural examples, saying them again, and returning to them often enough that recall becomes faster and speaking feels less stiff.
