Select the word, tap Share, and choose GoVocab. The definition is waiting for you — no retyping, no switching apps, nothing forgotten. BUILT FOR INTERMEDIATE LEARNERS Most dictionary apps are written for native speakers. GoVocab is not. Every definition is checked to be understandable by someone still building their English. No confusing jargon. No definitions that need their own dictionary. REVISION THAT FITS AROUND EVERYTHING ELSE Saved words turn into flashcards, scheduled with a proven spaced-repetition system (FSRS) so words come back right before you would forget them. Sessions are short. There is no pressure, and no streak to lose if you skip a day. YOUR VOCABULARY, NOT A SET LIST GoVocab does not hand you a word list to memorise. The words that build up are the ones you actually got stuck on — in an article, a novel, a lecture, an email at work. YOUR LANGUAGE, BUILT IN Tap any word to read the explanation in the language you think in. And now the whole app speaks your language too — the entire interface is available in Arabic, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), French, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, Thai, Urdu and Vietnamese. LEARN WITH LUMI Your friendly guide through GoVocab, here to make learning English feel a little less intimidating. GoVocab is free. No account needed — open the app and start learning. Great for ESL and EFL learners, IELTS preparation, university students, and anyone who reads in English and keeps meeting words they don't know.
