Import your own word list
Already keep words in a spreadsheet? Take a template, fill it in, import it.
Filling in the template
Delete the example rows and add your own, one word per row. Only Word is required:
- Word: the only required column.
- Definition, Translation, Part of Speech, Phonetic: leave blank and LeafyApp looks them up for you.
- Gender, Base Form: for languages that use them (e.g. "die", "f").
- Context, Notes, Date Added: kept exactly as entered.
- Language, Folder: which language the word is in, and which folder to file it under.
Importing the file into LeafyApp
- Click the LeafyApp icon in your menu bar and open Settings.
- Find Vocabulary backup and click Import.
- Choose your file. LeafyApp previews every word it found. Untick what you don't want, then confirm.
Coming from another app? Skip the template. LeafyApp reads CSV, TSV, Excel (.xlsx), JSON, plain text and Anki (.apkg) exports as they are.
