The language learning Chrome extension for readers
A language learning Chrome extension that swaps about one word in a hundred on the sites you read, in the right form, and reviews them in a minute a day.
What this Chrome extension does differently
Words for your level
Set A2 and you meet “strada” long before “davanzale”.
The right form in the sentence
Two dogs becomes “due cani”. If we are not sure of the form, you get the plain word.
Typed reviews
Write the word once a day. Spaced repetition brings it back just before you would forget it.
Add a language to the browser you use all day.
Add to ChromeQuestions
Pages are analysed inside your browser with a local dictionary, and only a few words change, so reading feels the same.
It changes nothing on email, banking, payment or sign-in pages, never touches password fields, text fields or code, and you can pause it on any site.
Word swaps and your word list are free. The daily review has a 7-day free trial without a card, then needs Pro.
Choosing a language learning Chrome extension
A language learning Chrome extension makes sense for anyone who spends hours a day reading in a browser, because it turns that time into practice without asking for a new habit. The useful question is what happens to the words afterwards, since seeing a word once on a page rarely makes it stick.
NativeLingo swaps about one word in a hundred on ordinary websites into Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Swedish or English. It chooses words for your level and shows each one in the form the sentence needs, so you learn the plural or the right verb ending instead of a dictionary form that does not fit.
Every word you meet goes to your list and comes back in a short daily review where you type the answer. Spaced repetition decides when, so the review stays short. Typing trains recall and spelling, which is what you need to use the words yourself rather than just recognise them on a page.
Privacy is built in. The page is analysed in your browser, translations come from a local dictionary, and no AI model or translation service sees what you read. Only the ids of the words you were shown reach our server, because that is all the review needs. Email, banking and sign-in pages are skipped entirely.
