The Textfresser plugin helps German language learners build a structured vocabulary network by transforming any selected word into a detailed dictionary entry within your vault. It detects if a word is in its normal form and either generates a new entry or links it to the root form. Each word entry includes pronunciation, translation, conjugation or declension tables, and links to related grammatical or semantic variants. The plugin also supports automatic backlinking, helping you navigate between word forms like reisen, gereist, and reisender. Designed for deep linguistic exploration, it works best in a dedicated vault due to the large number of files it generates.
