Lirve helps you learn irregular verbs by repeating the verbs you fail at regular intervals. In other words: Lirve remembers your mistakes and repeats the challenge in the future.

Install

MELPA

M-x package-install RET lirve RET

And add the following to your init.el:

(require 'lirve)

use-package

Requires Emacs 30 or later. Add the following to your init.el:

(use-package lirve
  :vc ( :url "https://git.andros.dev/andros/lirve.el"

Configure (Optional)

Shows the translation of the verb when resolving or failing.

Only available in Spanish (at the moment).

Usage

M-x lirve

I also recommend creating a function to make it easier to remember the command.

(defun learning-irregular-verbs-in-english ()
  "Start Lirve."
  (interactive)
  (lirve))

M-x learning-irregular-verbs-in-english

Verbs table

You can browse the full list of verbs in a read-only table:

M-x lirve-verbs-table

Click on a column header to sort by it, and press q to quit. If lirve-translation-language is set, the table includes a fourth column with the translations.

If you want to add more languages, make a PR with the translations in lirve-verbs.el.

For example, the verb beat in Italian and Spanish:

(
    (infinitive . "beat")
    (simple-past . "beat")
    (past-participle . "beaten")
    (translations
        (es . "golpear")
        (it . "colpire")))
