Verlang di Aether Research UG

Languages do not live in word lists. They live in articles, stories, documentation, videos and the sentences you happen to be reading. Verlang brings the dictionary to that moment.

🔎 Understand words in their natural habitat

Select a word on a webpage or in supported YouTube and Netflix subtitles. Verlang examines the surrounding sentence, finds the dictionary form even when an inflection or a separated particle makes it difficult to recognize, and identifies the meaning that fits the context. If the selected word belongs to a larger expression, Verlang can recognize the expression as a whole instead of interpreting each word in isolation. You can save that expression and practise it throughout Verlang just as you would a word.

Select several words and Verlang translates the complete phrase in context, then breaks it down word by word. You can see what the phrase means as a whole and understand how its individual parts contribute to that meaning.

🧩 Go beyond a translation

Depending on the language and selected word, Verlang can show:

• the lemma, part of speech, pronunciation and audio;
• distinct senses, translations, usage information and examples;
• grammatical information such as gender and the relevant inflected form;
• conjugation and declension tables, with explanations of individual forms;
• synonyms, antonyms and related words;
• etymology and the history behind a word.

When a translation alone is not enough, ask Verlang to explain the meaning in context. It can point out the clues that distinguish a literal sense from a figurative, idiomatic or specialized one.

Verlang can also explain the grammar of the form in front of you: its case, gender, number, person, tense, mood, voice, agreement or role in a larger construction. Instead of giving you a rule in the abstract, it begins with the sentence you are actually reading.

🌱 Turn an encounter into something you remember

Save the words and expressions you want to keep and continue in Verlang on the web, iOS or Android. Use your saved vocabulary in reading and listening, practise it through interactive exercises, flashcards and vocabulary games, and strengthen it through writing. Verlang can also create texts matched to your level and interests, giving each new word or expression somewhere meaningful to return to.
