KanKan — Learn Chinese by Watching

About

KanKan (看看) turns any Chinese YouTube video into a language lesson — without
turning it into homework.

WATCH
• Three-layer smart subtitles: Hanzi, pinyin, and English, right under the player
• Accurate Chinese word segmentation — words are visually grouped, not a wall of characters
• Tone-colored characters so tones finally stick
• Works with any video that has Chinese subtitles

LOOK UP
• Hover any word for an instant dictionary card (125,000-entry CC-CEDICT)
• HSK 3.0 level badge on every word
• Click a word to pause the video and hear it pronounced

SAVE & REVIEW
• One click saves a word together with the exact sentence you heard it in
• Built-in spaced-repetition flashcards — no Anki setup, no configuration
• Review takes 3 minutes a day, right in the extension popup

MATCHED TO YOUR LEVEL
• A 2-minute placement test estimates your vocabulary
• Get video recommendations that fit your level and interests

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• 100% local: no account, no tracking, no analytics, no servers
• Your word list never leaves your device

Keyboard shortcuts: ←/→ jump between subtitle lines, R repeats the current line.

KanKan is built for learners who got into Chinese through dramas, food videos and
vlogs — and want the hours they already spend watching to count.
