## What is Ta?

Ta-doku helps you learn Japanese with real videos.

Read along with Japanese transcripts, look up words as you watch, save useful vocabulary, and review only what is due each day.

Instead of studying from isolated word lists, Ta-doku lets you learn from real content you already want to watch.

What you can do:
- Learn Japanese with video content
- Read Japanese transcripts while watching
- Tap words to check meanings
- Save vocabulary to your word list
- Review saved words with simple daily practice
- Track your reading and vocabulary progress
- Switch between Japanese and English learning modes

Ta-doku is built for learners who want to understand real Japanese little by little, without getting lost in fast videos or forgotten vocabulary.
