If you already have word lists prepared — in a spreadsheet, a text file, or another format — you can import multiple lists into Vocab Loco at once instead of creating them one by one.
How to Import Word Lists in Bulk
Step 1: Go to your group
- Go to Word Lists and select the Custom Word Lists tab.
- Click Manage Words on the group card.
Step 2: Click Add Lists in Bulk
- In the group header, click Create New List.
- Choose Add Lists in Bulk from the options.
Step 3: Choose your import method
- Paste data tab — paste your lists directly into the text box.
- Upload file tab — upload a .csv, .tsv, or .txt file.
Step 4: Format your data correctly
- Each list must follow this format, one list per line:
LIST NAME, word1, word2, word3- Example:
Lesson 1 – Short A, cat, bat, map, the, andLesson 2 – Short I, sit, pig, lip, is, itLesson 3 – Short O, dog, hot, top, on, not
Step 5: Preview and save
- A preview table appears showing how your data will be imported.
- Review it and click Save to confirm.
? Pro Tip: Prepare your lists in a spreadsheet first, then save or copy as CSV. This is the fastest way to import an entire semester's vocabulary in one go.
Q: What file types are supported for upload? A: You can upload .csv, .tsv, or .txt files. Make sure each line follows the format: LIST NAME, word1, word2, word3.
Q: What happens if my format is wrong? A: The preview table will show how the data was read. If something looks off, go back and adjust your file or pasted text before saving.
