Show omitted accents after accepting answer

Some Spanish words are spelt with accents áéíóú or the extra letter ñ. The “Created by Memrise” Spanish courses accept answers typed without accents. I assume this is a compromise for the sake of learners who can’t type the accents on their keyboard. That’s fine.

However I think it would be a good idea if after accepting the answer (when the background turns green), Memrise were to show the proper Spanish spelling with accents. That would help learners learn to recognise the word as it’s spelt in Spanish text, as well as to write it correctly on paper, or later on a Spanish keyboard.

Thus the course should continue to accept “el limon” as a correct answer for “the lemon”, but it should show the proper spelling “el limón” when it turns green.

yes, this would be a good idea, so if you were writing it on paper you would know what accents to use :slight_smile:

Perhaps this userscript can help you:
