Word of the Day: Vocab Builder

A daily vocabulary practice

Word of the Day: Vocab Builder gives learners a daily word to study, with explanations and example sentences to show how it is used. It suits people who want to build vocabulary in short sessions, whether for general learning or to find new words to use in writing and conversation.

Words, quizzes and games

The app combines daily vocabulary with quizzes and word games. Quizzes offer a way to revisit words, while games such as Hangman and Word Relay add practice through word guessing and associations. You can save words to review later, and the app includes progress tracking and streaks to help make regular practice easier to follow.

A learning plan to start from

Word of the Day includes an initial vocabulary assessment and questions about learning goals, which it uses to shape a learning plan. The daily word is presented with supporting information, including examples and illustrations. Notifications are available for users who want a reminder to return to their practice.
