Vocably – English Exam Words

Vocably is an English vocabulary trainer built on a carefully chosen core of words — and every single one comes with its meaning and example sentences in your own language, not just in English. Pick your level, study with flashcards or quizzes, and let the spaced repetition system decide what comes back and when.

WHICH EXAM ARE YOU PREPARING FOR?

• GCSE English and A-Level: the vocabulary that keeps turning up in unseen texts and comprehension questions.
• IELTS (Academic and UKVI) and TOEFL: the academic words that reappear in reading and listening passages.
• Cambridge exams (B1 Preliminary, B2 First, C1 Advanced): word lists matched to CEFR levels.
• TOEIC and business English: the words you actually need in meetings, emails and presentations.
• University and beyond: full A1–C2 coverage, so you can start exactly where you are.

Straight talk about the list: it is a focused core, weighted towards the A2–B1–B2 band that carries most exam texts, with A1 foundations underneath and C1–C2 words on top. The layer that pays off first, not an endless list you never finish.

STUDY IN YOUR OWN LANGUAGE

Meanings and example sentences are built in for 24 languages, including Spanish, French, German, Polish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Czech, Turkish, Arabic, Chinese, Russian, Ukrainian, Japanese, Korean, Hindi, Indonesian, Vietnamese and Thai. No English-only definition you have to decode before you can learn the word.

TWO WAYS TO STUDY

• Flashcards: see the word, recall it, flip the card, rate how well you knew it.
• Multiple-choice quiz in three directions: English to your language, your language to English, and English definition matching.

SPACED REPETITION THAT ACTUALLY SCHEDULES

• Five confidence stages: new, learning, familiar, known, mastered.
• The same word never comes back on the same day, so your revision stays evenly spread.
• Words you get wrong are collected in their own list, and Learn from Mistakes mode brings them back until they stick.
• Nothing to configure — answer honestly and the schedule takes care of itself.

WHAT IS ON THE WORD CARDS

• Meaning in your language and in English
• IPA notation and audio pronunciation
• Part of speech, including phrasal verbs
