Great find!

First I was afraid of those cows but they can be disabled in the options :)

I used Vocatude (2.0) a lot, which is a very easy-to-use word teaching app and it was (is) my best friend. I learned thousands of words with it, literally. The only problem is that it's not portable but that was easy to fix, with NSIS and later with jauntePE.

I like the features of TeachMaster and that it's portable and tiny also. I will definitely give it a try.

Little addition: this is for learning foreign languages, not merely learning more English vocabulary. (Like -- for example -- word of the day.)

Still, the screenshots paint a picture of an amazingly versatile program. Its surprising this is freeware.

Yeah I had to rewrite my response twice to make that more clear and it's still confusing.
