The problem

learn German with YouTube subtitles

YouTube is full of real German input, but pausing to translate words and copying them into another app breaks the flow. Most useful words disappear after the video ends.

A simple YouTube study loop

Watch → Understand → Save → Practice

SubLex keeps the learning loop close to the YouTube video, then moves saved vocabulary into your personal dictionary and cards.

How the workflow feels

01

Watch with dual subtitles

Keep the German caption visible while reading the translated line underneath.

02

Hover words in context

Open quick word details only when you need meaning, part of speech, or examples.

03

Save and practice later

Send useful words to your dictionary, then review them with cards after watching.
