Next up of the features we released on Tuesday is the custom definitions system. This feature allows you to change any Skritter definition to whatever you want. So while you’re practicing, if you see a definition you’d like to personalize, or add an example sentence to, or even put some *simple* _formatting_ or img:http://example.com/images.png in there, just click on it and edit away. User Byzanti had a good idea about using cloze deletions in the definitions, too.
You can also choose to submit your definition edit as a correction. If you notice a mistaken definition, now there’s no need to send us an comment about it. Just edit it to what it should be and check the “submit as correction” checkbox. We’ll review the fix and potentially accept it for everyone, and you’ll still get your preferred definition right away.
Another note: you can also start adding custom definitions in other languages than English. If you share them, they can be accepted for inclusion in the multilingual dictionary we’re building to support Skritter in other languages. We’ll blog more about that later.
Maksym and Scott are working on building the ability to edit custom definitions from the list pages, too. That won’t be ready for a while, but it’ll make it easy to change a bunch of definitions at once. There’s going to be a lot of other cool stuff that comes along with that tool, too.
