There's also https://nuenki.app (disclaimer: I made it), which applies the same approach to every single website*. It translates appropriate-difficulty sentences into your target language, and you can hover for definitions, pronunciations, etc.

I actually want to learn German, but I want to learn it by reading German texts and starting from zero, even though that makes it challenging. I need to look up definitions and such, but translating the entire page defeats the core purpose. This app in my case is just perfect match! Thank you for sharing!

Any plans to add Hindi, being the third-most spoken language in the world?

Sure, I'll add it. It isn't supported by DeepL, so it'd have higher latency (alongside a few other languages that are Claude-only).

I can contact you when it's added, if you like - perhaps you could email alex (at) nuenki.app?
