How well does LingQ work for Germanic languages?

You can easily use it for all the rest but separable verbs, when the particle goes at the end of the sentence, are not managed by LingQ. There is a limitation of highlighting 9 words and usually it is not enough for German.

See this discussion: Why the lingq is limited to 9 words?

In any case, you might find the same verb in many other combinations with the particle attached where you can lingq it as with the other words.

I don’t do it but if I wanted to be more accurate, I would probably use ANKI in combination with LingQ to copy/paste those longer sentences and save them there, or with another method that you prefer.

However, it is also true that if I really wanted to learn some particular separable verbs, I would probably ask ChatGPT to write 20 examples with the combination I want to and improve from there. Maybe save some of those examples as notes in LingQ.

You can easily find workarounds.
