How it works

  1. Pick any content. Browse materials by language and level above, or paste any YouTube video or article link — Langly makes it studyable.
  2. Tap as you read and watch. Any sentence breaks down into smaller pieces with a translation and reading at every level; any word opens a dictionary written for learners.
  3. Keep the words. Save words as you meet them — short daily reviews (recall, listening, dictation) make them stick in a few minutes a day.

Why Langly?

Textbooks fail because you don't care what's in them. Langly turns the real YouTube videos and articles you actually want to understand into interactive lessons. If you know Language Reactor — interactive subtitles you can hover and study — and Anki — spaced-repetition flashcards — Langly is the two combined: study real content with tap-to-understand subtitles and text, and the words you save come back on a light daily review schedule.

Everything runs in the browser, mobile browsers included — nothing to install, your library and progress on every device.

Features

  • Interactive YouTube subtitles

    Per-sentence replay, pause-per-section, and a dictation mode that grades what you type against what you heard.

  • Sentence breakdowns

  • A learner's dictionary

    Meanings, readings and examples generated for learners.

  • Built-in spaced repetition

    Reviews sized to your day, never a backlog avalanche.

  • A study report

FAQ

Is Langly free?

Browsing, importing and sentence breakdowns are free — no account needed. A free account adds saving words, daily reviews and progress tracking.

Where do the materials come from?

From learners: every video and article here was imported by someone studying it, ranked by how many people finished it.

How is this different from Duolingo?

Duolingo teaches sentences written for a course. Langly helps you understand the real videos and articles you already want to watch and read — and remember what you find in them.

Do I need some of the language already?

No — materials are graded from Super beginner to Advanced, and Super beginner assumes very little.

Can I export my words to Anki?

Yes — the words you save export from the Review page as a TSV file ready for Anki's importer, with customizable card templates. Your words are never locked in.
