Is there anyway to combine the note types Basic (and reverse) and Basic (type in your answer)?  
I want to make a deck for Spanish class, but I want to have a deck where I can type in my answer. I can’t figure out how to make a note type like this.  
**Do I have to use an addon?**

No add-on needed. You can add the special check-your-answer format to any template. [Field Replacements - Anki Manual](https://docs.ankiweb.net/templates/fields.html#checking-your-answer)

At first, I couldn’t figure out how to change the template in the first place. However, I got it! Thanks
