How it works

1. Read a story at your level

Kontext writes short stories and dialogues for your CEFR level, from A1 to C2, on the topics you pick.

2. Tap any word

See what it means in that very sentence, with its article, plural, verb forms, an example and how it sounds.

3. Review what matters

Spaced repetition brings each word back just before you would forget it, starting with the most useful words.
