NativeLingo

Claimed

Language learning through word swaps for people who read and watch videos in Chrome.

Overview

NativeLingo replaces a few words on pages you read with translations suited to your level. You can peek at the original, then type the words from memory in a 90-second daily review. It also brings the same word swaps into subtitles for shows and videos you already watch. YouTube works right away through the browser extension.
