Question 1

How does a round work?

Accepted Answer

A familiar proverb is shown with one word replaced by a blank. You pick the missing word from three to six options; the wrong options are real words taken from the other sayings in the pool, so the choice is not trivial.

Question 2

Are the proverbs in my language?

Accepted Answer

Yes · each locale uses its own well-known sayings, not a literal translation of an English list. The Swedish, German, French, Spanish, Italian, and other locale pools each draw from that language's actual proverb canon. For a few locales the wording is still being refined by native speakers.

Question 3

Why not translate the English sayings?

Accepted Answer

Because most proverbs don't translate. "The early bird gets the worm" word-for-word in French ("l'oiseau matinal attrape le ver") is grammatical but nobody says it · the French equivalent is "l'avenir appartient à ceux qui se lèvent tôt". Each locale plays the sayings actual speakers grew up hearing.

Question 4

How many proverbs are there?

Accepted Answer

The pool starts small with the most universal sayings (the dozen-or-so that have direct equivalents across most languages) and is designed to grow with locale-specific additions. A "what does this saying mean?" explainer mode and country / category filters are on the roadmap.

Question 5

Does it work offline?

Accepted Answer

Yes. PlayMemorize is a Progressive Web App. Install once and Proverbs works without an internet connection.
