## What is LingoTide?

Understand a new language in seconds, like a native. LingoTide makes comprehensible input work for complete beginners: stories with so much context built in that you follow real sentences from your very first one, and pick the language up the way children do.

Every story plays with an interactive transcript. Tap any word or phrase, in the story or in its translation, and the matching parts light up on both lines, so you see at once how the sentence maps to your own language, even when the words come in a different order. You never leave the story to look something up, so your immersion never breaks.

- Phrases, not word for word: the help under each line is matched phrase by phrase, in shared colours, so you take in whole chunks of the language the way they're really used
- Grammar in context: a mark on the line opens the pattern as it's used in that very sentence, how it works and more examples, so you learn its usage, not a rule
- Tap a word for its meaning in that sentence
- Build your vocabulary without drilling: save words, phrases and grammar as you go, and export all of it to Anki, as a deck that's yours to keep
- Stories written for every level, from complete beginner, each read aloud, with the text following the audio line by line
- Turn the help under the line off as you improve, slow the audio down or speed it up, and tap a line to hear it again
- After a story, review its new words and patterns, build and translate its sentences, and practise speaking
- A daily listening streak
- With a subscription, save stories to listen offline

Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Russian and Arabic (beta), each with the help its script needs, every one a switch you turn on or off:

- Japanese: romaji and furigana above every word
- Chinese: pinyin
- Russian: romanisation
- Arabic (beta): transliteration and tashkeel (the vowel marks)

Listen free for 5 minutes every day, no card needed. A subscription opens every story in every language and level, with no daily limit.
