I liked this special word, but the voting section is placed on top of the image, different location.
In terms of consistency, not all words have sound in the pronunciation section.

Excellent Vocabulary!

Hi Mary

Thanks for the candid feedback. We agree that not all words have the sound based pronunciation. This has been the case with our initial words. Just like your feedback, we had others who wanted us to provide audio pronunciation and we incorporated the same. We shall cover the old words with audio pronunciations too.

Where would you like the voting section to be placed? :) We’d love to fix the location.

Thanks for your valuable feedback and hope to have you around more often! :)

Hi,
According to the rest of voting section, they are placed after the image. I think that keeping the same place would not affect user´s memory. :-)
Greetings!!
