kvoctrain is a little utility to help you train your vocabulary, when you are trying to
learn a foreign language. You can create your own database with the words you
need.
It is intended as a replacement for index (flash) cards.
You remember: write the original expression on the front side of the card
and the translation on the back. Then look at the cards one after another.
If you knew the translation, put it away. If you failed, put it back to try again.
kvoctrain is not intended to teach you grammer or other sophisticated things.
This is and probably will be beyond the scope of this application.
