Description from store
LightLang is a next-generation translator that supports automatic selection of text elements such as words, sentences, paragraphs, etc. Thanks to this feature, the average translation time is reduced to 100 ms¹, whereas manual selection takes 1500–3000 ms. Just press Alt+Shift and hover over the desired text unit — it will be automatically underlined, and then you just need to click to translate. This takes the translator to a new level, making it suitable not only for daily translations but also for language learning.
🎯 Learn languages simply by visiting websites
With high-speed translation, you can not only translate but start reading in the original language within minutes, comparing sentence and phrase translations with individual words. It becomes true language practice: over time, you’ll learn to read without translation. New words and expressions no longer need to be memorized — they are learned more easily thanks to natural context. No courses, lessons, or flashcards required.
🧠 From background mode to rapid immersion
LightLang is great for both slow, passive learning and rapid immersion. If you want to learn a language faster, regular practice on real texts — articles, news, and other web content — will help. And if you don’t have time to study, simply translating repeated words while browsing will help you memorize them naturally and expand your vocabulary.
😌 Laziness is no longer a problem
In many translators, you have to manually select parts of the text — this becomes a barrier even for simple translation. But LightLang automatically underlines the necessary fragment — just hover the cursor. The act of translating becomes easier and below the laziness threshold, and this changes everything — you no longer skip frequently encountered words, and the chance of giving up learning is much lower.
📚 What else LightLang can do:
• Support for 107 languages
• Voice output, transliteration/transcription²
• Auto-highlighting with capture — translate several words in a row (Ctrl + Alt + Shift)
• Instant switching between auto-highlighting levels (Alt + Shift + mouse wheel)
• Adding words, phrases, and sentences to the review list
• Auto-highlighting and letter translation for languages with unfamiliar alphabets³
• Nested translations — within an open translation you can click on any word, letter, or even a whole sentence to open its translation over the current one
