This looks cool. I like the way you can access both a literal translation (by clicking a word) and also a more natural one.

(At first, I was surprised to see 'a fairy' translated to 'vieja bruja' (old witch), but in general it makes sense not to have strictly literal translations.)

Great, thanks. We also support multi-words and sentence translations with google translate. This is in paid version but if you want to try then login and use READINI-DEMO promo code for 10days free :) *[For the first 1k users]
Hi, together with my wife we spent a few years working on this side project, to let us improve foreign languages by reading and listening bilingual books. Foreign literature is difficult but having synchronized translation also with audio and online dictionary is now more accessible with this app.
Would LOVE this if you had English / Mandarin available!
Thanks, this is on our list but don't know when. Text and audio alignment is automatized, but it takes time to find resources and then manually check the results.
