A word-ordering game. Words from one intensity gradient · like cold, cool, warm, hot · appear shuffled and you tap them in order from weakest to strongest. One wrong tap ends the round.

What does ordering words train?

Gradient vocabulary · the sense of how far apart near-synonyms sit on a shared scale. It upgrades vocabulary from a set of words into a calibrated instrument for both reading and writing.

What kinds of gradients appear?

Everyday scales · temperature, size, sound, wetness, brightness, frequency, quantity, age, certainty, distance-like scales such as puddle-to-ocean, anger and difficulty.

Does it work in my language?

Yes · each gradient is authored natively per language with words whose ordering is clear in that language, not word-for-word translations.

Yes · rounds grow from three words toward five, and longer windows include closer neighbours where the gap between two words is smallest.

Continuum · Du plus faible au plus fort · Français
