English vocabulary Q&A
How to remember English words after you look them up
NoForgetDict is built for one common problem: you understand a word today, then forget it tomorrow. These answers explain how memory hints and spaced review turn quick lookups into long-term vocabulary memory.
What is NoForgetDict?
NoForgetDict is a memory-first English dictionary and spaced-review app. It helps you look up a word, understand it, connect it to a memory hint, save it, and review it at the right time until it sticks.
Who is NoForgetDict for?
NoForgetDict is for English learners who often look up words but forget them later. It is useful for students, self-learners, readers, exam learners, and anyone building an English vocabulary habit.
How does NoForgetDict help me remember a word I looked up?
Each lookup can become a memory card with a simple-English meaning, real-life usage, a memory hint, examples, pronunciation, and translation. Save the word, then NoForgetDict brings it back through spaced review.
How can I stop forgetting English words after looking them up?
Save important words after you look them up, connect each meaning to a memorable hint, and review the words before you forget them. NoForgetDict turns quick dictionary lookups into scheduled vocabulary review.
What is the best way to remember new vocabulary?
Understand the word in context, connect it to a memory hint, save it, and review it at spaced intervals. You can also add your own note or association to make the word more personal and easier to recall.
What is spaced repetition?
Spaced repetition is a learning method where you review words at increasing intervals. Words you remember are reviewed later, while forgotten words return sooner.
What happens when I tap Remember or Forget?
Remember moves the word to its next review interval. Forget resets its review progress and keeps it in today's queue so you can strengthen it again.
How often will I review a saved word?
When you keep choosing Remember, the intervals are 1, 3, 7, 14, 30, 60, and 90 days. If you choose Forget, the word returns to today's review and starts the sequence again.
What happens after the 90-day review?
If you remember the word again, future reviews continue at 90-day intervals. If you no longer need reminders for it, you can mark it as mastered.
What does Mark as mastered do?
Mark as mastered stops future reviews while keeping the word in your Memory Deck as a personal record. You can return it to reviews at any time.
How is NoForgetDict different from a normal dictionary?
A normal dictionary helps you understand a word once. NoForgetDict turns the lookup into a memory card that you can save, review, and remember over time.
Can I save words and review them later?
Yes. You can save words into your Memory Deck and review them later. Saved words remain available for review even when you have used your daily lookup limit.
What does each word explanation include?
Each lookup is designed to teach the word through a meaning written in simple English, pronunciation, real-life usage, a memory hint, examples, and a translation. AI-generated content may occasionally be incomplete or incorrect.
How does a memory hint help me remember a word?
A memory hint turns the meaning into a short association, situation, or mental picture. For example, a hint for serendipity might be “a lucky surprise,” making the meaning easier to recall later.
Why does NoForgetDict show both a simple-English explanation and a translation?
NoForgetDict uses simple English to teach the meaning and how the word is used. A translation stays alongside it to help you confirm your understanding.
Can I write my own notes for words?
Yes. Premium users can use My Notes to add private memory hints, examples, or associations for saved words.
Can I sync saved words between devices?
Yes. Sign in to keep your saved words, review progress, and personal notes available across your devices. Guest data stays on the device until you sign in and sync it.
Does NoForgetDict work offline?
Saved words and review can work offline. New AI lookups, account sync, purchase restore, and other online services need an internet connection.
Can I choose when review reminders appear?
Yes. You can turn review reminders on or off and choose the reminder time. The default reminder time is 9:00 AM.
What does NoForgetDict Premium include?
Premium includes 150 lookups per day, My Notes for private memory hints, and an ad-free experience while Premium is active.
