Soak: Read a New Language

Soak is a little language, every day: short news stories, written at your level, in the language you’re learning. READ Each day Soak brings a fresh set of short stories based on real news, written simply for A1, A2 or B1 learners. Tap any word to see what it means in that sentence. Drag across a phrase to read it as a whole, or reveal a sentence’s translation when you need it. Every story names its source. LISTEN Play a whole story or one sentence at a time, at 0.75×, 1× or 1.25× speed, with the text following along. SPEAK AND PRACTICE Say a sentence aloud and see which words came through. Answer a few questions about the story, then write a short reply in your own words; Soak checks your writing and shows what to change. WORDS Every word you tap is saved for you. Words groups them by how well you know them, shows the sentences where you met them, and brings them back in short reviews.
