I've enjoyed using Yak Tack since the beginning to learn new words and it works really well! Highly recommended for readers.
@patelnachiket cheers. Let me know what you think after you kick the tires, so to speak.
This is awesome, congrats on the mobile launch! Looking forward to trying this out!
There are so many good words that I’ve reconnected with through Yak Tack. Words like apocryphal and sundry and loquacious.
@reginaldstokes thanks! Peripatetic is another word I love, although it has fallen out of use given its non-utility in this worldwide COVID-19 pandemic.
Yak Tack is great not because it helps me remember words. I’ve discovered a lot of new words by following people too!
@jgrahamthomas would you like some feedback? I've been signed up for *checks post date* ten days now and could give some constructive criticism if that's welcome.
As a non native English speaker, I really appreciate the ability to get English word definitions in my native language!
@kevinwhitlow Right on. While Yak Tack's super useful for native speakers (I use it all the time), I think this is likely to be our niche; helping non-native speakers boost their English vocab. I'm glad you like that feature!
