Make building your vocabulary fun and simple with WordPal.
WordPal is a useful app that can be used to improve your English vocabulary, whether it be to help you sound more intelligent, directly in exams, in word games such as Scrabble or Boggle, with creative writing or anything else.
The simple, clean interface allows you to concentrate on learning and progressing swiftly, without any annoying distractions. The app uses a special algorithm centred around the scientifically proven approach of spaced repetition to determine which words you aren’t so confident with, allowing it to prioritise the order in which words are served. This allows you to quickly learn new words and grow your English vocabulary whilst also reinforcing the meaning of words that you already know.
The selected words are based on their frequency in the English language in its everyday use, meaning that you are learning words that you don’t know while still being able to use these words every day - there would be no point in learning words you would never use, see or hear!
After downloading the app, you will be able to enjoy the many features WordPal has to offer for free:
- Pick the synonym of the word given from multiple choice
- See the word’s definition(s) to help you better understand the word
- See an example for each definition to show the word in context
- Access your progress at any time to get a feel for how you are doing; get regular updates of your progress while learning to show how you are improving your vocabulary
- 5 progress levels are used: mastered, nearly mastered, getting there, keep trying and work needed — this helps to see how well you know each word
- Sleek, clean design
- Set a daily goal to help keep you on track and set up notification reminders for specific times of the day, allowing you to improve your vocabulary every day and learn new words rapidly through spaced repetition
- Build up a streak (the number of consecutive days you have achieved your daily goal)
- Extremely intuitive and simple to use
A premium version (WordPal Premium Subscription) is available through subscription which includes more words, games, and the ability to bookmark words.
Picking the correct synonym is a very useful method for growing your vocabulary quickly:
- Firstly, it makes it easier for you to use more advanced words when you speak or write. If you wanted to find a better word for something, you would look in a thesaurus (a thesaurus shows synonyms for words), but if you know a synonym for each word you learn in the app, you will find it easier to replace that synonym with the more advanced vocabulary word in everyday speech and writing.
- Secondly, knowing a synonym serves as a trigger word in your memory to help you remember the general meaning of each word - having this trigger word makes it easier to remember the definitions and examples you have seen in our app when you see or hear a word.

This app is amazing. The only thing that I can criticise is the fact that once you master all of the words, there are no more to do. For example, it would be a good idea to have more levels of difficulty so that a range of people will be able to use it.Apart from that, however, I think that this app is essential for anyone who wants to quickly expand their vocabulary.
Great app

Love the app during the trial but I’d love it to see there are much shorter words to start with and then build up. I have changed the difficulty level to 5% but still the words are too long especially in all of the games. I have undiagnosed ADHD at the moment and have been struggling in learning new words and remembering them. I would be so much happier to have 4 and 5 letter words to start with then build up from there - just like the TV day quiz programme of LINGO. So right now I feel a bit put off and getting bored quickly with frustrations, sorry to say. I hope you can add to this great app in the future updates.
Even better if…

I am thoroughly enjoying WordPal and it is indeed improving my vocabulary. I have however a couple of ideas which I feel would be of even greater benefit: 1) the added option to play games tailored to my bookmarked words and 2) games with, or means of viewing, categories of similar words e.g there seem to be quite a lot that refer to (public) shame or criticism, as there are for sadness too.
This app is really good

We’ve added a new Lock Screen widget, allowing you to expand your vocabulary throughout the day without even needing to open the app.
