Vocabulary trainer: Several correct answers

If there are several correct translations of a particular word in the list, only one possibility is classified as correct for each question. The other possibilities are displayed by clicking the link "Not searched for" right below the input field.
Additionally it's possible to enter [space] instead of typing the first letter. This way the first letter is entered automatically, so you can exclude the other possibilities. If necessary press [space] once more.
