Readlang alternatives for intermediate readers
Readlang is useful when you already know what you want to read. LingualNews is for readers who want a short, prepared news edition instead of hunting for suitable material.
What Readlang offers
Readlang translates words and phrases in webpages or uploaded and pasted text. Saved translations can be practised with flashcards.
Choose Readlang if you want to read your own articles, books or webpages and keep translated words for flashcard practice.
Where LingualNews differs
LingualNews supplies 4 fresh news stories every morning, written at B1–B2 level, with all languages on one £1 subscription. It keeps the daily practice focused on one short read, with a vocabulary recap and no streaks or points.
4 fresh, source-checked stories every morning per active language pair. Pick one for a 4-minute B1–B2 reading habit, or read all four. Learning more than one language? One £1 subscription covers every pair.
English speakers can learn Spanish, French, Italian, German, Arabic, Portuguese, Polish, Norwegian or Japanese. Spanish and Arabic speakers can learn English. These are the 11 active daily pairs across 10 languages.
First 30 days free, then £1/month. Card required; nothing charged until day 31. Cancel through Manage subscription on your dashboard before the trial ends to avoid payment. Payments handled by Stripe.
