Build Your Own Language Dictionary: Beyond Standard Definitions
from My Weird Prompts
Standard dictionaries tell you what a word *should* mean — but what people actually say is often completely different, especially for technical vocabulary in languages like Hebrew. This episode explores practical tools and workflows for building a personal dictionary that captures words as they're really used, with context, nuance, and the social signals that textbooks never teach. From Anki and RemNote to Readlang and Obsidian, we break down the best capture and review strategies for intermediate language learners who need technical terms that don't appear in any official dictionary.
