Vokabulo
iOS · 1 recommendations
Vokabulo
Most language apps and courses are built for the road to B1: the grammar, the pronunciation and the first thousand words everybody needs. Vokabulo is a personal vocabulary trainer for what comes after. Once a learner can already speak, the words they still lack come from their own work, conversations and interests, so there is no shared list left for a course to teach. Vokabulo lets them capture any word they meet, fills in the translation, a natural example sentence and a usage label, and brings it back at the moment they would otherwise lose it, until they can reach for it under pressure. They can also describe a situation they are about to face, a rental contract appointment or a client presentation, and get the vocabulary for it in under a minute. Vokabulo supports more than 100 languages in any pair combination, runs on iPhone and iPad, and is free to start.

Sada
Web
Sada
Sada is a free browser tool for practising spoken English by shadowing captioned YouTube videos. How it works: open a video, listen to one short line, record yourself repeating it, and play your take back beside the original. Repeat the line until your rhythm, stress and pauses sound closer to the speaker. Word matching shows which words were recognised, so you can spot the ones that got lost. It does not grade individual speech sounds. What you can practise with: any YouTube video that has captions, or a curated library of caption-verified talks (TED and similar) sorted by level (B1, B2, advanced) and accent (American, British). Privacy: speech recognition runs in your browser and your recordings stay on your device. There is no account, no card and no extension to install. The interface is available in English and Arabic. Sada is free, with no paid tier.
