Accessible & What I Needed
I have been using this app for about a year now since completing the Russian Duolingo course. I was looking for more immersive exercises since Duolingo can only take you up to about 2,000 words. Reading Russian literature books can be an alternative but having to go back & forth on words you can’t understand leads to spending time on translation which breaks the pacing of reading a single sentence. This app manages to simplify this very well by keeping track of what words you’re familiar with & what words you might need some practice on. My only problem is when I stumble upon a new word but the word isn’t auto-translated for you, it breaks the pacing but at least to a far lesser extent than if I was reading a physical book. I also enjoy the wide array of selection for what you can read, I’m hoping we get full novels on this app someday soon. Coming off a year of Ling my word count is somewhere up to 3,224 (according to the app) so my progress has been slowed down but my reading comprehension has improved significantly.
