The learning loop
Stickly connects deliberate translation with later recall. You choose text, save a useful word with context, meet it again on a later page, and answer a short review when it is due.
The browser extension
The extension works on ordinary web pages. It provides the selection translation bubble, pronunciation, saved-word highlights, and inline quizzes while you keep your page open.
Purple highlights are remembered words. Orange highlights indicate a word due for review. A successful inline review turns matching highlights green briefly.
The webapp
The signed-in webapp is the management and practice hub. Word Hub shows your collection and status; flashcards, tests, the tile game, and Practice Studio offer separate ways to work with your vocabulary.
Where to begin
Install and choose languages: Finish onboarding and select the language pair you want to learn. Translate deliberately: Select one useful word on a page and use the translation action. Save selectively: Keep words you expect to meet or use again, rather than everything unfamiliar. Return and recall: Use a later highlight, Word Hub, or flashcards to attempt the meaning before revealing it.
