In-Context Tap-to-Define & IPA
Tap any unfamiliar French or Spanish word directly on the page to see its translation, part of speech, root lemma, and International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) transcription—completely offline.
Comprehensible Input • French & Spanish
StoryReader: learn a language by actually reading stories
Looking up every fifth word in a separate dictionary kills the joy of reading in French or Spanish. So I built StoryReader around comprehensible input: tap any word on the page to hear it spoken aloud and see its IPA phonetic transcription, part of speech, and meaning without leaving the story. Highlight whole clauses to untangle idioms, save words in one tap to a spaced-repetition flashcard deck, or import your own .epub eBooks, .txt files, and spreadsheets. Try it live right here, or install it onto your phone in two taps.

Tap to define. Listen in context. Turn lookups into active recall.
Clause & Idiom Highlighting
Tap the ✨ icon on any sentence or highlight a multi-word expression to view the full contextual translation and grammar notes (like French ne… que or Spanish cueste lo que cueste).
TTS Narration & Pronunciation
Every word tap plays native audio pronunciation for immediate phonological reinforcement, or you can hit Narrate to listen to continuous passage narration at your own speed.
Flashcards, Cloze Quizzes & Anki Export
One tap saves a word alongside the exact story sentence you met it in. Review with SM-2 flashcards, fill-in-the-blank context quizzes, or export straight to Anki (.tsv) and CSV.
