What learners say about TalkWord
Real notes from English learners, shared in their own words.
This app is truly amazing! I chose it for several reasons. First, the vocabulary it presents is quite advanced—these are words I recognize but never knew how to use naturally. Second, the thorough explanations really help me remember what I’ve learned. Third, the app is beautifully simple; it only takes about 10 minutes a day, which makes it easy to build a consistent habit. This app is going to be a blockbuster someday!

I came across your YouTube channel while I was searching for the meaning of the word “intimate” and I loved how it was explained and put in different contexts. I was actually having trouble understanding it but the context helped me alot and the illustrations as well. It’s truly the most organised dictionary I’ve ever came across. Everything is perfect! I also really loved the practice part. Thanks for your amazing work. Please keep it up.

我在小红书APP刷短视频时遇到了你的官方账号，一个全英的播客对话能帮助我更好理解和记忆单词词义，同时让我学习到了很多地道的表达（如果使用英文词典查询这些英美文化语境下的常用词义，往往需要费不少功夫），所以我果断下载了Talkword。总之，再次感谢你开发了这个软件，我非常喜欢并会推荐给我的朋友，加油👍你真的很厉害！

I came across your official account while watching short videos on Xiaohongshu. The all-English podcast conversations help me better understand and remember the meanings of words, while also teaching me many natural expressions. I downloaded TalkWord right away. Thank you again for creating this app—I really love it and will recommend it to my friends. Keep going 👍 You’re doing an amazing job!

Memorizing words is usually a very tedious task, but what really appeals to me about this app is how it uses concrete images and scenarios to make the process engaging.

I truly appreciate your great effort in creating such a wonderful English teaching application. What I find most appealing is how the app contextualizes words—it’s such a natural way to progressively guide users into exploring vocabulary. Great job!

谢谢你开发了这款app，用对话的形式解释单词确实比单纯翻字典记得更牢，对我来说帮助很大。

Thank you for developing this app. Explaining words through dialogue really does make them easier to remember than simply looking them up in a dictionary. It has helped me a lot.

翻译思维是理解英文的最大绊脚石之一，wordtalk本身试图帮助用户从认知分析中获得某一个表达的实际体感，播客形式使得听力和思维都得到了激活，这是它最独特的地方。
English translation
Thinking through translation is one of the biggest obstacles to understanding English. TalkWord helps learners develop a real feel for an expression through cognitive analysis, while the podcast format activates both listening and thinking. That is its most distinctive quality.
