Answer Set is an Anki add-on which gives better feedback for “type in the answer” style cards if there are multiple correct answers and improves support for Indic scripts.
Multiple Answers
If you try to have multiple answers in a “type in the answer” style card in Anki, you will run into some issues. For instance, if you had “depart, go, leave” as the answer but typed “leave, go” instead, you would get:
This makes it difficult to see which answers you got correct, and which you actually did get wrong. With this add-on, the “correct” answers are rearranged before showing the difference, and so only this would be shown:
This is particularly useful for language learning, since often there will be multiple words matching a definition or multiple definitions for the same word.
Lenient Validation
This add-on also makes it possible to mark certain words in an answer as optional by putting them in parentheses or square brackets, or to accept any one of a set of words within an answer by separating them with slashes. See here for more details.
Improved Support for Indic Scripts
For some languages such as Tamil (தமிழ்), the script requires combining characters to represent vowels. Here is an example of the diff that Anki gives by default when typing “திரமபு” (tiramabu) instead of “திரும்பு” (tirumbu):
Separating the combining marks from the letters that they attach to make it difficult to see what is actually wrong, so this add-on groups combining marks before showing the difference:
