A language is a country you are slowly moving into. You do not learn it from a phrasebook at the border. Eduasis is a reading-first language app for people who would rather be inside a language than tested on it. Choose readings on the things you would happily read about in your own language — history, culture, science, sport, whatever your personal favourite is — pitched at your language level. Tap any word for a translation that fits the sentence. Ask for an explanation when something does not parse. Save what is useful, and let the app quietly bring it back until it stays. There are flashcards, and small rewards for returning, because returning is the whole game. But the heart of it is the reading. Eduasis is built on comprehensible input, free reading, and spaced repetition: three ideas that, together, turn a language from a wall to climb into a town you are getting to know. Read. Understand a little more than yesterday. Come back. — — — Currently available in eight languages: English, Turkish, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Danish, Dutch. Premium plans available.
