Learn a language by reading what you already read.
Langsplice takes real Wikipedia articles in English and splices in words from the language you're learning — a few at first, more as you improve. No flashcards, no made-up textbook dialogues. Just reading.

German 🇩🇪, Spanish 🇪🇸, or French 🇫🇷 today, with more on the way.
-
Read real articles
Every article is a genuine Wikipedia article — history, science, places, people — with words translated in context, not in isolation.

Turn the dial up
You choose how much of the text is spliced. Start at a trickle, and raise it as the words start to feel like yours.
How you learn: the diglot weave method
When you're learning a new language and can't find a word, you reach for the one you already know and drop it into the sentence in your native tongue. Linguists call this code switching — it's the brain's natural fallback.
The diglot weave method inverts that instinct and turns it into a learning tool. Instead of a known word standing in for an unknown one, Langsplice weaves the new word into text you already understand. The surrounding English carries the meaning, so each foreign word arrives in a sentence that already makes sense — and it sticks, because you met it in context, not on a flashcard.
Comprehensible input, on real text
You already know how to read. Langsplice keeps you inside sentences you understand, so every new word arrives with its meaning attached — the way you learned most of the words you know in your own language.
