Improve Lesson Flow, Separable Verbs Handling, and Review System

Hello, I am using LingQ very well and really enjoying it, but there are some improvements I hope could be made. I sincerely hope these can be implemented soon.

  1. When I finish one lesson in a course, could the next lesson automatically appear in the library? Every time I want to continue with the next lesson, I have to search for it again and enter it manually.

  2. When I click on an unknown word in a lesson, only that single word becomes a LingQ. However, in German there are separable verbs with prefixes. In such cases, could it be possible that when I click either the prefix or the verb part, it can be linked together (or optionally separately)? Ideally, clicking it would create a LingQ that includes the separable prefix and the verb together.

  3. During vocabulary review, the same words appear repeatedly. I would prefer to review the entire vocabulary set in a completely random order, but even words that I have already reviewed many times keep appearing over and over again. Even when I apply filters, this still happens. Please make the review order more random.

  4. During reviews, the example sentences seem to come directly from the lesson text. Because of this, I often end up answering based on remembering the lesson rather than actually knowing the word. It would be better if the questions were made more difficult. Right now, the exercises feel too easy.

I think adding a feature like pressing Ctrl and being able to select two separated words would be ideal for this. It is indeed necessary.

I like the idea. I would add to fix a problem, when I select to “review the lesson” I only want to review… the lesson. I don’t know why they give me exercises/sentences from other lessons.

That would be cool not only for German (German specifically isn’t relevant to me because it’s my native language), but also for phrasal verbs in English and, at times, in other languages when it comes to combining verbs and prepositions.

That is soooo detailed perfekt idea!

Re: Point 1, you should be able to open the previous lesson and click the next arrow in the lesson menu to go to the next lesson in the course. Or, click to View Course from the menu in the library. It should be quite easy to get to the next lesson.
