Excel is a very powerful tool that can be used for almost anything. Although it is usually used to store and analyze data, with a little creativity you can make an excel template do more than just store and analyze data.
As I am a person who likes to learn new languages, it occurred to me that I could use excel to practice new sentences. So based on some applications I decided to create a kind of game that would allow me to review different expressions of a language.
Although the template was originally made to learn languages, it can be used to learn anything, anything from math equations to historical facts.
In this story I will explain how I made this template.

Template structure
The structure is very basic. There will be two tabs: one that contains a table with the sentences that I want to learn, and another tab from which you can play.
The table will contain the following fields:
- ID: To identify each sentence.
- Sentence: To write the sentences I want to learn.
- Translation: Where I store all the answers.
- Count: To know the iterations of the game.
