Added October 15, 2026. Written with AI assistance and checked for clarity and placeholders; not reviewed by a lawyer, accountant, clinician or other professional. How these prompts are made
The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
[VERIFY] is an editorial flag, not a blank to fill. Wherever the prompt shows [VERIFY], check that item against a reliable source before you use it (what [VERIFY] means).
Prepare a reading lesson from my text. Text in [TARGET_LANGUAGE]: [TEXT]. My level: [LEVEL]. Reading goal: [GOAL]. Choose ten key words that block understanding and give short glosses. Provide pre-reading prediction questions, three gist questions, and eight comprehension questions that need inference. Highlight five useful grammar patterns found in the text with a note each. Then create a vocabulary list of twelve items worth learning, ordered by frequency in the real language to your best knowledge, marked [VERIFY]. Add a technique for reading without a dictionary on the first pass and a plan for re-reading after a day. Include a summary exercise with a model answer. Add a way to pick texts of the right difficulty using the rule that about ninety-five percent of words should be known for comfortable reading, noted as a rough guide, and a log for recording reading speed. Provide a follow-up task to retell the text aloud in the target language in a minute.
