Tap a word, see just enough meaning, then continue reading.
recuerda
remembered quickly
Lectorist is for learners who already know the basics, but still meet too many unknown words to comfortably read native material. It keeps reading at the center: translation helps the flow, vocabulary comes from real exposure, and progress stays quiet.
How it works
Vocabulary grows from reading, not from busywork.
Translate only when needed
Tap unknown words for a lightweight translation with enough context to stay in the text.
Recognize words later
Words you translate are collected automatically. When they appear again and you keep reading, Lectorist treats that as progress.
Product principles
A calmer way to build vocabulary.
Reading flow first
Translation should help you continue, not pull you into another study mode.
Contextual exposure
Your vocabulary list is built from words you met while reading meaningful content.
Quiet progress
Progress appears through recognition over time, without forced quizzes or heavy dashboards.
Personal learning data
Reading history, imported content, translations, and progress are treated as private learning data.
What it is not
Lectorist is not a full language course, flashcard app, social platform, grammar tutor, or general browser.
The app is intentionally narrow: a mobile-first reader for real content, lightweight translation, vocabulary tracking, RSS, document import, and a simple progress view.
