## What is HushRead.app?

Read real articles in the language you're learning — and finally understand them.

HushRead turns any web article into a calm, clean reading experience built for language learners. No ads. No clutter. Just the text, in the language you want to read.

HOW IT WORKS
• Paste any article link, or share it from your browser
• Read it cleanly — distractions stripped away
• Tap any paragraph to reveal the translation, tap again to hide it
• Tap a highlighted word to see what it means in THIS article — a context-aware definition, not a generic dictionary entry

WHY LEARNERS LOVE IT
• Stay in flow — no more switching to a translation tab and losing your place
• Learn words in real context, the way they're actually used
• Read what you actually care about — news, blogs, essays, anything on the web
• A quiet, paper-like reading space designed to keep you reading

CONTEXTUAL GLOSSARY
Most apps give you a dictionary. HushRead reads the whole article and explains key words the way they're meant in that specific piece — so you understand nuance, not just the literal meaning.

READ ON YOUR KINDLE (optional)
Love an article? Send it to your Kindle or Kobo with bilingual mode and glossary footnotes, and keep reading offline on e-ink. Available on every plan.

SUPPORTED LANGUAGES
English, Spanish, Portuguese, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, German, French.

PLANS
• Starter — free. Try it before you buy.
• Polyglot — $9.99/month or $99.99/year (2 months free): unlimited reading, up to 150 articles a month, advanced AI translation and glossary.

Start reading for free. Paste a link and see your first translation in seconds.
