How to read books in English with translation

Reading books in the original is one of the most enjoyable ways to learn English. You see words in real context, absorb grammar without drills and get used to authentic language. The hard part is unfamiliar words: opening a translator on every line is exhausting.

In Mira, translation is built into the book. Tap a word to see its translation, phonetic transcription and pronunciation. Select a phrase to translate the whole expression. Words you need go to your personal dictionary, and spaced repetition helps you remember them for good.

French books for beginners and beyond

If you are learning French, Mira works the same way: French books with tap-to-translate, phonetic transcription and narration. Start with a short book, then move on to Dumas and Hugo once you feel confident.

Listen and read at the same time: narration with word highlighting trains listening and pronunciation. The voices run on your phone, so you can read and listen without internet — on the road, on a plane or on the metro.
