Or perhaps a self-hosteable webapp i could add the words myself from curated sources on the internet to then do quizzes on it?

Inspired by xkcd's thing explainer I generated a list of how often words appeared in subtitles on opensubtitles for my target language.

I whipped those into a database, added manual translation for the top-1000 and started quizzing myself with a tiny php script.

It was more fun to code than to actually quiz myself. I think I played the top-100 before I got bored.
