Libera: Parallel Text Reader

Libera is a revolutionary language learning tool that enables users to easily read foreign language texts alongside the same texts in their own native language. Praised by users as "perfect" and "marvelous", this cutting-edge platform provides learners with a new way of accessing foreign language texts, making foreign language reading easier and more enjoyable than ever before. Foreign language reading is a proven and effective way of quickly improving your language skills, and Libera allows you to read a new language without constant, bothersome dictionary lookups. Libera presents the text of the language you're learning side by side with your own native language, giving you a ready reference for any unknown vocabulary or grammar. What's more, whenever a segment (word or phrase) is tapped in one of the texts, the corresponding segment in the parallel text is highlighted simultaneously, showing the link – for instance, a Spanish learner can tap the word “sombrero” to see that it is linked to the word “hat” in the English text. Each story available in Libera also features a customized dictionary, a full native audio recording in the language you're learning, and notes on key grammar forms, creating a fully-contained learning environment without the need for outside resources.
