Description

Dicty helps you build vocabulary in a new language while you browse the web. Instead of forcing you to study flashcards or take lessons, it seamlessly integrates learning into your daily reading. As you read content in a language you already know, Dicty replaces some words with their translations in the language you are learning. This way, you encounter new vocabulary in a meaningful context, making it easier to infer the meaning. The surrounding text remains in your familiar language, so you never lose comprehension.

Features

  • Contextual word replacement: While you browse, certain words are automatically translated into your target language. Because these words appear within sentences you already understand, you can grasp their meaning from context without interrupting your reading flow.
  • Click to reveal original word: If you want to see the original word in the source language, simply click on the translated word. This helps you connect the new vocabulary with its equivalent in your known language.
  • Spaced repetition through natural exposure: The extension reintroduces the same translated words multiple times across different web pages. By encountering a word a dozen times in various contexts, you naturally memorize it without conscious effort or drills.
  • Seamless integration with any website: Dicty works on any web page you visit, turning your regular browsing habits into a language learning session. Whether you read news, articles, or social media, the extension operates in the background.

Dicty is ideal for learners who prefer an immersive, low-pressure approach to vocabulary acquisition. It eliminates the need for separate study sessions and lets you learn passively while doing what you already do online.
