## Every word, with context

A word on its own is easy to forget. Toly gives each one a meaning, a natural example with a translation, pronunciation you can hear, and a few synonyms and antonyms, so you learn how the word is really used.

**resilient**, /rɪˈzɪl.i.ənt/ · adjective  (English vocabulary)

- Meaning: Able to recover quickly after something difficult.
- Example: “Kids are more resilient than we think.”
- Synonyms: tough · adaptable
- Antonyms: fragile · weak

## Type in either language

Heard a word in a film? Type it. Know it in your own language? Type that. Toly detects which one you typed and builds the card around the word you’re learning.

13: English, Español (Latinoamérica), Español (España), Português (Brasil), Français, Deutsch, Türkçe, 日本語, 한국어, 繁體中文, Tiếng Việt, العربية, فارسی

## Words from the real world

Reading a book or a menu? Scan the page and Toly picks the words that look new. Add the ones you want in one go.

## A routine that builds vocabulary

- **A few minutes a day**: Set a daily goal of 5, 10, or 15 minutes. Short sessions beat long ones.
- **Right before you forget**: Spaced repetition brings each word back at the right moment.
