Hi Folks.

I created what some would call, YET Another Word of the Day module. :-)

The module has an option to either get Spanish or Portuguese Word of the Day. Other languages can possibly be added at a later stage on request and if I can find a page out there for it.

I am stuck between just showing the single selected language for now and maybe building a table to display multiple language WOTD with examples. I am open to suggestions on this. (Please raise them on github)

Check out the github page for it.

Spanish WOTD

Portuguese WOTD

Enjoy!!

Updates:

Added Multi-language Support - You can now add multiple languages. Languages will rotate at a configurable interval
Add languages in an array ["spanish", "dutch", "german"] etc
Add you rotateInterval to the config i.e. 1000*30 will rotate the display every 30 seconds between the selected languages.

Great work, thank you! FYI, for some strange reason as of right now the URL for english is throwing a 404, easily verified by going to https://www.englishpod101.com/english-phrases/

@ehjaysea Hi. Seems like EnglishPod has now changed. The other languages seem to still be working, for now. Will start looking around for new sources.

@ehjaysea I have pushed a change and English should now work again. Please do a git pull && npm install in the module folder. Everything should work again.

@mumblebaj Wonderful, thank you! Working again :clapping_hands:
