Ah, thank you. Interesting. Thought of something like that. Which reminds 
me of a small application I once, long long time ago, made in Basic on a 
ZX-Spectrum (with the then famous "rubber chicken" keyboard and... it was 
in color, wow). A Raspberry Pi nowadays is allready so much more powerfull 
than those things...  To practice word-translations, random words fell 
down. You had to type the correct translation before they hit the bottom. 
If you were in time you could gain points. If you were quick, you could 
type more words (and gain more points). If you had not typed the right 
translation you were shown it, of course. Gamification makes learning fun!
