Honestly CSV import is the way to go. That leaves you with how to get cards in. That depends largely on how you are working with stuff.
Some bespoke options include:
- The Kindle dictionary lookup history is an SQLite file on the kindle. Scrape that and pull it out
- Write a CLI command to lookup words in some dictionary website and stick that somewhere
- Just have a text file open somewhere where you paste words, and then you do the lookup later.
I think there's a lot of ways to make things easier, especially if you're working with another language with an open source dictionary. You need to do some one-time elbow grease to get it in, cuz what people want is different.
Another thing you can do if you like just going wild: just download somebody else's card deck. You can set things up to show you (for example) 10 or 5 or even 2 new cards a day. You will end up being shown a bunch of new words. You can just absorb those over time and see how that helps.
