Similar to LingQ there is Migaku which can do this for YouTube and other sites. It definitely has significantly aided my learning and made it a zero friction and even fun experience to learn another language.
- Alex-Programs 2y agoThere's also https://nuenki.app https://nuenki.app (disclaimer: I made it), which applies the same approach to every single website*. It translates appropriate-difficulty sentences into your target language, and you can hover for definitions, pronunciations, etc. *other than those blocked for privacy reasons
- arbayi 2y agoI actually want to learn German, but I want to learn it by reading German texts and starting from zero, even though that makes it challenging. I need to look up definitions and such, but translating the entire page defeats the core purpose. This app in my case is just perfect match! Thank you for sharing!
- Alex-Programs 2y agoAwesome! Let me know if you have any feedback!
- dpig_ 2y agoAny plans to add Hindi, being the third-most spoken language in the world?
- Alex-Programs 2y agoSure, I'll add it. It isn't supported by DeepL, so it'd have higher latency (alongside a few other languages that are Claude-only). I can contact you when it's added, if you like - perhaps you could email alex (at) nuenki.app?
- dpig_ 2y agoThat would be awesome, cheers.
- Alex-Programs 2y agoI've added it. https://nuenki.app https://nuenki.app :)
- dpig_ 2y agoLove your work! Thanks.
- arbayi 2y agoThank you for sharing! Looking at their blog, I saw this post about learning Japanese vocabulary (https://migaku.com/blog/japanese/how-to-learn-japanese-vocabulary https://migaku.com/blog/japanese/how-to-learn-japanese-vocab...). They share a Japanese Netflix Frequency List - (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15b3j9--RJ1K5hI9vz_2LXn2YNn7UWxWrRi58_Xykkp0/edit https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15b3j9--RJ1K5hI9vz_2L...) "To recognize 99% of all the words in Netflix's subtitles, you'd need to know 37,247 words" Interesting approach! I really don't know how they managed to gather this list, but it's an interesting and clever method.
- davidzweig 2y agoI'll drop this here: If anyone wants to work on Language Reactor (well compensated), my email is in my profile. I'm planning to start open-sourcing much of it soon.

- rapidpolyglot 2y agoYou should try Lingopie.com, Its like the Netflix of Lanuguage learning. It's way more developed & Polished than Migaku or Language Reactor ... Migaku is only a chrome extension and Lingopie has thousands of TV shows and movies & also works with Netflix & Disney plus. Plus it has tons of language learning features and tools that Migaku has. You can also watch and learn on iOS & Android plus on your TV with their Smart TV apps.
