About

Put away your textbooks and immerse yourself in your chosen language by reading news articles, blogs, novels... whatever interests you! Discover or upload texts in Spanish, French, German, Russian, English, Polish or any of over 40 supported languages. Frustrated with texts which are too difficult? ------------------------------------------------ Simply click words or phrases for rapid translation to English. Read stories and articles without giving yourself a headache. A library of videos, texts and songs -------------------------------------- Browse the free library of videos, texts and songs on Readlang's public library. Collect your words and phrases ----------------------------------- Every time you click to translate, the word or phrase is stored to your personal word list for you to export or review. Practice flashcards --------------------- Unlike similar tools, Readlang stores the context along with the word. This will remind you of the original article, allow your brain to make the associations which are the key to effective memorisation and learning. Testimonials ---------- "Readlang is probably my top resource now for learning new languages. Whenever I don't feel like studying properly, I can just read an article in a foreign language and enjoy it, without having to worry about looking up words that I don't understand. It makes reading in a foreign language a much quicker and more enjoyable experience!" - Alex Rawlings, Teacher, Polyglot, and Britain's most multilingual student (http://rawlangs.com/about/) "Readlang is one of the best language learning tools I’ve ever used. It is especially good for helping you get past the beginner levels of a language and into the intermediate and advanced stages." - Ron, Language Surfer (www.languagesurfer.com) "It is difficult to give something that is so young a five star rating, but this is already one of the best sites (along with stuff like Anki, Memrise, "X"Pod, Duolingo, LingQ, etc.) around for this and it is only getting better." - Joseph Heavner, Quora (https://www.quora.com/Reviews-of-Readlang-language-learning-website)
