How to practise

  1. Read. Focus on the phrase shown first.
  2. Think. Say or formulate the translation before looking at the answer.
  3. Check. After 10 seconds, compare your answer with the translation.

Read the phrase first and try to formulate the full translation before it appears. The ten-second delay gives you more time to build a natural expression rather than translate word by word.

Listen: English audio is provided through Puter text-to-speech. A free Puter account is required to use this feature.

The Listen button always plays the English phrase, and notes appear together with the translation when available.

Use the category drop-down menu to focus your practice on a particular phrase category, or choose the random option for mixed practice.
