Description
QuestWordHunter
Learn vocabulary naturally while questing in World of Warcraft.
QuestWordHunter opens a movable reading panel for quest text in your chosen language. Every word is clickable, so unfamiliar vocabulary can be saved without retyping it. Add a translation, a personal note, and one of four learning statuses: New, Learning, Known, or Ignored.
Features
- Read and select words from new quests or quests already in the Quest Log (Quest Log button included).
- Color saved words by learning status directly in the quest text.
- Store a translation, personal note, quest title, and sentence context.
- Track the first-added date, last-seen date, and number of distinct quests for each word.
- Receive a non-automatic Ready for Known suggestion after five quests and fourteen days of learning.
- Browse saved vocabulary in a searchable
Word List(/whw words) and track progress inStatistics(/whw stats). - Choose from four window backgrounds (Tooltip, Dialog, Solid, Midnight) and adjust transparency (
/whw settingsor/whw bg/opacity). - All windows are resizable, movable and remember their position.
