Open a file with German text. For every unknown word, generate a structured vocabulary entry with context from the text. Enjoy the web of your personal dictionary.
This plugin helps you create and maintain a comprehensive German language learning system in Obsidian. It automatically generates structured entries for: Verbs, Nouns (with gender color-coding: 🔵 masculine, 🔴 feminine, 🟢 neuter), Adjectives, and other parts of speech.
Once any form of a word appears in your text:
It and all of its other forms will be linked to its infinitive form:
The infinitive form points to all forms of the word, its antonyms, and synonyms:
Each word type has a specialized template that includes:
- Pronunciation
- Conjugation/declension tables
- Synonyms and antonyms
- Translation
- Morphological breakdown
- Part of speech tagging
The plugin automatically maintains bidirectional links between related words, helping you build a network of connected vocabulary:
- Links between base verbs and their prefixed forms
- Connections between synonyms and antonyms
- References between related grammatical forms
-
The plugin will be creating a LOT of files (every konjugation of every word will live in it's own file). So it is hightly recommendend to make a special folder ("Worter") for all the new files to go to by default.
All of the automatically created files go to Worter/{the_fiest_letter_of_the_word}/{word} bt default -
