LingQ was actually an inspiration for me in designing this. For Parsnip I took inspiration from LingQ, Anki and ReadLang.

I feel like it was just too early for its time though, because of this LingQ has you manually match up definitions that were community sourced, words aren't kept together, etc. So I'm trying to follow through on the ideas that you can see in LingQ.

Also the LingQ UI is hard to use. Instead of refining the ideas that set them apart they've added more and more features. They feel like memrise or any other flashcard app with this one neat reader function.
