This is the real practice screen — every line of every article works like this.

  1. 01

    Listen to the line

    Every sentence is read aloud by a native voice. Replay it as many times as you need, at the speed that suits you.

  2. 02

    Type it back

    Each letter is checked as you type. Mistakes turn red with a soft sound, so spelling and word order stick for good.

  3. 03

    Tap any word

    See the translation in your language, the IPA pronunciation, and hear the word alone. Save it to review later.

Read and type in your own language

Translations are available in 11 languages — Arabic, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Swedish, Polish, Dutch, Turkish and English. Pick your language once and every word in every article follows it.
