Read and save language you want to learn
Keep a useful word with the meaning that fits the sentence you just read. For example, save deadline — hạn chót in English at work so you can practice recalling it later.
Before you start
Open a reading in your library and have a lesson ready for your words. If you need one, create a lesson.
Read and understand the text
- Read a short paragraph. Choose Display to change text size, line spacing, or the background.
- When audio is available, use the play button at the bottom. You can change the speed and repeat the sentence you are listening to.
- Tap or click a word to look it up. Check which meaning fits the context instead of taking the first meaning automatically.
- If the paragraph’s translate button is available, choose it to view a Vietnamese translation. The translation helps you understand the text; it has not been saved as a learning term.
Save a word for practice
- Copy or note the word and the sentence containing it.
- Return to My Library, open the destination lesson, and choose Add Term.
- Enter the word in Term and its meaning in Meanings. Use Add more details to add an example sentence if needed.
- Choose Add to Lesson, wait for saving to finish, and check the Terms list.
Selecting text in the reader does not save it. A selection may show an introduction to the Chrome extension or mobile app. The manual steps above work without installing an extension.
If something goes wrong
- Audio will not play: continue reading and try playback again later.
- Translate is disabled: translation is unavailable for that paragraph; you can still look up individual words.
- The word is missing from the lesson: check the destination and the save message. Copying text alone does not save a term.
Practice your new word
Open the lesson’s Flashcards and try recalling the meaning before revealing the answer.
