DualLog

書いて終わりではなく、読み返して身につける英語日記。 DualLogは、日本語と英語で日記を書きながら、自分だけの英語表現を少しずつ増やしていく英語日記アプリです。 疲れている日等はとりあえず日本語だけで日記を書き、あとからその日記をもとに英語日記を記載することもできるため、とにかく継続しやすいことを意識しています。 日本語のみ記載した日は、後からボタンひとつでランダムに日本語のみを記載した日記を開き、英語日記を追記することができます。 これによって暫定的に記載した日本語のみの日記は、後から英訳をするための教材となります。 また、英語日記を書いていると、 「この表現、どう言えばいいんだろう?」 「この単語、前にも調べた気がする……」 そんな経験はありませんか? DualLogでは、日々の日記だけでなく分からなかった単語や覚えておきたい表現も一緒に保存できます。 保存した単語や表現は「マイ辞書」に蓄積され、日記を書いているときにいつでも確認できます。 さらに、過去の日記を時間を置いて読み返すことで、以前自分が使った英語表現をもう一度復習できます。 書く → 残す → 読み返す この繰り返しを、無理なく続けられるように設計しました。 【主な機能】 ・日本語と英語で日記を記録 ・カレンダーで日記を管理 ・分からなかった単語やフレーズをメモとして保存 ・保存したメモを「マイ辞書」としていつでも確認 ・カレンダーに「今日の一語」を表示し、過去に保存した単語をランダムに復習 ・1日前・2週間前・2か月前の日記をすぐに復習 ・シンプルで集中しやすいデザイン 毎日の何気ない出来事を英語で書く。 分からなかった単語を残す。 そして、時間を置いて読み返す。 DualLogは、あなた自身の日記を英語学習の資産に変えていきます。
