    I really like this idea. In fact I’ve been thinking about something similar for a while.

    When a text is far beyond your reading level a side by side option would be ideal. And when you aren’t struggling so much, it’s probably better to show the translation only for sentences or paragraphs as needed, like you suggest.

    No promises on this at the moment though I’m afraid, I have a lot of other work to do first.

    This isn't exactly what you're asking for, but I've just added a "Read Aloud" feature using synthetic voices. If your browser supports it, you'll see a play/pause button at the bottom of the reader page which, when clicked, will read the text out loud, highlighting the current word being spoken. This is only available if your browser supports locally generated text-to-speech on the device you are using.


    This was only added last night, so if you have a Readlang tab already open, please refresh it to get access to the new feature. And if you notice any bugs, please let me know!


    The feature is available to all Readlang users, and Premium users are additionally able to customize the voice in the "AA" sidebar tab.


    Please let me know what you think!


    (I also like the idea of being able to upload audio files with real human voices, and am…

    Thanks for the suggestion. Currently all your words are private but I’ve been planning to open things up so that by default everyone shares their words and phrases publicly, and probably to restrict the option of private words to paying users only. This would open the doors for the kind of collaborative features you suggest.

    Watch this space!
