Read your target language and keep every word
Graded posts in English, Spanish, Italian, French, German and Portuguese, from A1 to C2. Tap any word for its meaning, then keep it in your personal dictionary in the app and practise it with games. Everything core is free.
Drills that never turn into real reading, and paper notebooks forgotten in a drawer: here the words you meet in a post go into your own dictionary and come back in games until you know them.
Free account, no card needed. For adults learning a language on their own, and the teachers and study groups who help them. It's not a course with set lessons: you choose what to read.
