Learn a language from the pages you already read
Lexflick puts words of the language you are learning into the web pages you read and the Netflix and YouTube subtitles you watch. Click a word to see why it has that form, explained in its sentence. Then train it with spaced repetition.
How it works
1
Your words, on every web page
Read the web as usual: the words you are learning appear in your new language, underlined, inside the English text. Click a word for its translation and pronunciation and save it in one click; select a phrase to see its grammar in the sentence.
2
In Netflix and YouTube subtitles
Your words appear in the subtitles of your series and videos, a few per line. Peek at the last words with one key, pause and pick a word from the subtitle panel, and save it without leaving the film.

A trainer that remembers, on your phone too
Every word you save becomes a flashcard, read aloud and often with a picture. Spaced repetition brings it back just before you would forget it, on your computer or your phone, even offline.
