About This Workflow
Accelerate your Chinese language learning with this powerful n8n workflow. Designed for efficiency, it transforms raw vocabulary entries in a Google Sheet into rich flashcard material. Upon adding a new word, the workflow automatically translates it to Simplified Chinese, then leverages AI to extract Pinyin and craft a concise example sentence. Simultaneously, it searches Pexels for a relevant image and stores it in your Google Drive. All generated components—Chinese character, Pinyin, example sentence, and image link—are then merged, providing a comprehensive dataset ready for your flashcard system. Spend less time on manual content creation and more time mastering Mandarin.
