Read like you always do
Reddit, the news, a recipe, your homework. Hover a word for the original and how it sounds.
Saturday, the mercadomarket · /meɾˈka.ðo/ opens at eight and sells out of peaches by ten.

Type them back
The review asks you to write the word, not tap “I knew it”. Pulling it from memory is what makes it stick.

Two books, not two book.
Most word-swap tools paste in the dictionary form. NativeLingo matches plurals and verb tenses to the sentence. If we're not sure of the form, we show the plain word instead of guessing.
The page says
I bought two books.
Other extensions
I bought two libro.
NativeLingo
I bought two libros.
Now in YouTube and Netflix subtitles
The same swaps, in the shows and videos you already watch. YouTube works right away, Netflix is one switch in the extension.
Pick why you're learning
NativeLingo then shows more of the words that come up in that part of life.
