Build French vocabulary from the pages you read
French words appear in place, with the right gender and form for the sentence, so your French vocabulary grows a little with every article you read.
French vocabulary in context, at your level
Words for your level
Set B1 and you meet “personnage” long before “entremetteuse”.
The right form in the sentence
Three books becomes “trois livres”. If we are not sure of the form, you get the plain word.
Typed reviews
Write the word once a day. Next time it appears in a subtitle, you catch it.

Yes. The form comes from published tables of French word forms, so plurals and agreement match the sentence, and when a form cannot be checked you see the base word.
Frequent words that fit your level. At A2 you meet everyday words long before rare literary ones.
No. Pick A1 to start from the most common words, or take the three-minute test if you already know some.
Learning French vocabulary that sticks
French vocabulary lists are everywhere, but a list gives each word one quick meeting with no sentence around it, and French words change shape with gender and number. That makes context more important than in many languages, because you need to see les fenêtres and une rue in real sentences to remember how they behave.
NativeLingo brings that context into the pages you already read. It swaps about one word in a hundred into French, picks words for your level, and matches each word’s form to the sentence. A hover shows the original word and its pronunciation, and every French word you meet lands in your list.
Recognition comes first, but recall needs practice, so a short daily review asks you to type each French word you met. Typing also trains spelling and accents, which matter a lot in French. Spaced repetition brings each word back just before you would forget it, so a few minutes a day is enough.
Pair it with French you enjoy, such as a podcast, a series or the news, and the words you met on your pages will start turning up there too. That is usually the moment French vocabulary stops feeling like a list and starts feeling like a language. It also helps to read one short French article a week.
