## What is MediaDict LITE?

Study over 50 languages, including English, Korean, Spanish, French, Japanese, Chinese, Russian, German, Vietnamese, Turkish, Italian, and more! Enjoy fun and diverse content to enhance your language learning experience.

MediaDict provides the most effective methods for language learning: dictation and shadowing.

In every language, certain words are hard to hear depending on surrounding words. Identifying the words you struggle to hear accurately helps you become familiar with their pronunciation, leading to effective improvement. The “MediaDictW” menu offers dictation exercises by arranging word order, while the “MediaDict” menu provides character-by-character dictation.

Speaking practice is essential in language learning. Using the “Repeat Player” menu, listen to phrases in videos and practice pronunciation with shadowing techniques. The key to improving speaking skills is practicing as accurately and frequently as possible. You can also check pronunciation accuracy through the speech recognition feature.

You can list all the words included in the content and easily access their meanings through more than 20 online dictionaries. The platform also provides a speech recognition feature for practicing pronunciation of individual words.

MediaDict’s video player supports bilingual subtitles, displaying both original and translated captions. After completing dictation, activate the “RewindSub” option to review the content. “RewindSub” hides subtitles by default and only shows them for the length of the rewind if you couldn’t catch a section. Tap the rewind button or double-tap the left side of the video screen to use this feature, which helps you assess your listening skills for the content.

With MediaDict, there is no limit to study materials. Over 100,000 YouTube resources are available, with more added continuously.

Know of YouTube content with captions in the audio language? Use the YouTube URL input feature to turn it into study material.

Want to study using a movie or drama not available on YouTube? As long as you have the video and subtitle files, you can use the external file connection feature to make it a study resource.

Experience a language learning tool with limitless potential!

### 1/5 — 動画を取得できません

*2026-01-31*

ライト版でまずはお試し、と思い、リストに出ていたNetflix動画でディクテーションを試すべくMediaDictボタンを押しましたが、動画を取得できない旨表示され、その先に進めません。他の動画でも試しましたが同じでした。
良さそうであれば有料版を買おうと思っているのにライト版でこのようなことでは有料版を購入する気になれません。
修正をお願いします。

**Developer response:** The app has passed review and is now available for update.

I’ve uploaded the new version and am currently waiting for Apple’s review. The paid version has already been approved, but the Lite version seems to be taking longer. Sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for your understanding.

### 2/5 — 知道不错

*2023-07-08*

但不会用呀

### 5/5 — Very good!

*2023-01-23*

Very good!

### 4/5 — Good player but...

*2020-07-30*

Make it possible to copy subtitles in the movies, not only in subtitles editor. Or it would be good if in subtitles editor I could choose audio track, not only in player. And it would be perfect if this player could open custom stream urls. Thank you.

### 5/5 — 너무 좋아요

*2020-01-07*

좋아하는 영상으로 바로 대사부분만 편집되어 연습할수 있는게 편하고 좋아요. 그런데 제가 링크로 연결한 유튜브 영상을 MediaDict 눌러서 실행했을 때 기본으로 뜨는 한국어 자막을 어떻게 없애나요ㅠㅠ? 영상 우측에 설정으로 연결하는 쩜쩜쩜 버튼이 안눌려요. 누르면 영상이 정지되면서 영상이 사라지거든요.. 한국어 없애고 싶어요... 기본 유튜브 어플에는 자막 설정이 없는 상태로 링크를 가져와도 계속 떠요. 도와주세요!!

### 2/5 — 3gp영상이 나오지않아요

*2015-08-21*

사실영화는 3gp로 변환해야 패드에 들어가기가 편한것같아 나니아연대기를 변환했는데 재생이 안되네요

### 5/5 — 좋습니다 다만

*2015-07-11*

좋습니다
다만 딕테이션할때 그부분에 해당하는 영상도 같이나오는것도 선택하여 할수있으면 기억에도 더욱 오래남을테고 취지에도 더욱 합당할 것 같네요 
더군다나 특히 아이패드로 할때에는 빈공간이 너무 많이 남기때문에 그공간을 활용할수있으면 좋겠네요
