Overview

ZOKYO LINGUA: READ WITH CONFIDENCE

ZokyoLingua means ‘augmented language’. With this app you can read a word, sentence or paragraph at a time, allowing you to read or learn at your own pace, without having to read a large block of text or entire page.

With ZokyoLingua challenging vocabulary becomes instant learning opportunities. Whether you're helping your child with homework, preparing for IELTS, or building English fluency, every word becomes accessible.

HOW IT WORKS

Hover to Hear – moving your cursor (touch for touchscreens) over a word, sentence or paragraph, highlights it and gets read aloud. You get instant pronunciation in your preferred voice.

Click for Meaning – Click (long-press) any word for clear, Merriam-Webster definitions that appear right on the page, no opening new tabs or searching dictionaries.

Translate — Choose the language you want the translation for. It appears in the side-panel as you read down the page. No need to leave the page.

Simplify — gives you the meaning of paragraphs in simple English.

Summarise — long paragraphs are summed up for easy reading and quick understanding.

Save — Save blocks of text for later rereading with a click. Access bookmarked items in the side-panel.

Speech rhythm — Learn the rhythm that native speakers speak in to make yourself understood.

PDF reader — Open PDF files on your local system and read them like any other webpage.

Voice — Change the voice of the speech reader to your preference.
Speed — Speed up or down the speech rendition.

Works on most webpages – Wikipedia, news sites, educational websites, online articles, any website.

Floating panel – the app panel moves across open browser tabs, and retains state, to ensure continuity.
