Language acquisition happens through comprehensible input.
语言习得发生于「可理解输入」之中。
Your native tongue is the scaffold, not the crutch.
母语是支架,而非拐杖。
Native translation rendered beneath each sentence, preserving context and immersion.
O(n) Trie-based matching highlights target words in the page according to your level.
Select any word or phrase for definitions, phonetics, examples, and word forms.
Edge TTS and browser speech integrated — authentic audio on a single tap.
A pluggable adapter architecture — switch freely between Google, Microsoft, or your own AI model.
No accounts, no profiling, no browsing-history tracking. Your data stays on your device.
We respect every serious adult learner and refuse gamification and fragmentation. Three principles run through every detail of the product.
High-quality sentence-level parallel text makes your native language a reliable scaffold — not a reason to stop thinking in the target language.
We would rather translate less and do what genuinely helps learning. Comprehensible input over raw quantity.
The less interface, the more attention stays on the language itself. Restrained, spacious, never in the way.
Not a "translation tool", but a native-language scaffold for language acquisition.
Install and go — no sign-up. Designed for learners with a foundation who want real progress.
