About this app

Read short stories in the language you are learning, and tap any word you do not know.

ReadNative is a graded-reader app: every book is a retold classic, folk tale or legend, written to start at A1 (HSK 1 for Chinese) and build to B1.

20 LANGUAGES
Spanish, French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin Chinese, Russian, Arabic, Georgian, Armenian, Azerbaijani, Persian, Thai, Vietnamese, Ukrainian, Serbian, Greek and Hebrew.

HOW IT WORKS
- Tap a word: see its meaning in context (with romanisation for non-Latin scripts).
- Tap a sentence: see a full translation.
- Words you look up are saved for spaced-repetition review.
- Your known-word count grows as you meet words again.
- Android: export your words to Anki.

FREE TO START
The first book in every language is free. ReadNative Pro unlocks the full library and lets you import your own EPUB books.

GOOD TO KNOW
- Translations are in English.
- Read-along narration exists for the Chinese books (and one Georgian book).
- Works offline. Also available at web.readnative.org.
Short stories in 20 languages. Tap any word to translate. First book free.
