I also would like this option. Being able to write a language can be very important, and it easily could be built in a way, that one can choose between just turning around the card manually, and typing the answer and pressing <Enter> (as some other people suggested before).
This would also solve the problem of "how should the software react, if I write two translations on the card?": Cards with two translations, I could then just skip.
Or, extended version:
Two additional fields for each card: text check foreign word / text check meaning. These are only considered if filled; if they are not filled, the content of the fields "Foreign word or phrase" / "Meaning" is considered. One could even easily add the option to write multiple alternatives, by using the pipe symbol as separator.
Sure, I have well understood that Mnemosyne is made for remembering things. But in addition to the arguments mentioned before, for languages which do not have the ASCII set, it takes me a long time to remember the visual representation of a word (I am not well in visualizing, so visualizing character by character takes some time), while my fingers can quickly type the letters.
