Italiano
Fully supported — read, tap-to-define, mine vocabulary, and practice frequency-banded cloze in Italian, at Afrikaans parity. The on-device dictionary covers rich Italian inflection, while the Tatoeba sentence bank keeps elisions such as l'acqua and un'amica intact in practice.

Polski
Fully supported — read, tap-to-define, mine vocabulary, and practice frequency-banded cloze in Polish. The on-device dictionary covers seven cases across three genders, verb aspect pairs, and the consonant alternations that defeat naive stemming: noga becomes nodze, miasto becomes mieście, pies becomes psowi. Definitions also carry IPA, so tapping a word shows how to say it as well as what it means.

Čeština
Fully supported — read, tap-to-define, mine vocabulary, and practice frequency-banded cloze in Czech. Vowel length carries meaning here, so byt (“a flat”) and být (“to be”) stay two separate words instead of collapsing onto one key. The on-device dictionary covers seven cases, verb aspect pairs, and the stem changes that defeat naive stemming: kůň becomes koňmi, pes becomes psovi, město becomes městě. Definitions also carry IPA, so tapping a word shows how to say it as well as what it means.

Português
Fully supported — read, tap-to-define, mine vocabulary, and practice frequency-banded cloze in Portuguese, at Afrikaans parity. Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR) by default, with a Tatoeba sentence bank and an on-device dictionary covering rich Portuguese inflection (nasal vowels, conjugations, the personal infinitive).
View reference data🟩Esperanto → English
Esperanto
Fully supported — read, tap-to-define, mine vocabulary, and practice frequency-banded cloze in Esperanto. Because the orthography is fully phonemic, every lookup carries a rule-generated IPA pronunciation, and audio is spoken by eSpeak NG — the only text-to-speech engine that exists for Esperanto — hosted by Lector on every plan. Lookups understand Esperanto's regular word-building (malsanulejo → mal- + san + -ul- + -ej-) and accept x-system typing (gxardeno → ĝardeno).
View reference data🇷🇺Russian → English
Русский
Fully supported — read, tap-to-define, mine vocabulary, and practice frequency-banded cloze in Russian: the first Cyrillic language pack. The on-device dictionary covers Russian's rich inflection (six cases, verb aspect pairs, suppletive forms like шёл → идти), understands the everyday е-for-ё spelling (теплое finds тёплый), and shows lexical stress in definitions.
View reference data🇹🇷Turkish → English
Türkçe
Fully supported — read, tap-to-define, mine vocabulary, and practice frequency-banded cloze in Turkish. Agglutination is the whole problem here: a single word stacks plural, possessive and case endings (evlerimizden, “from our houses”), and the on-device dictionary unstacks them back to the lemma. Lookups also handle the dotted and dotless i correctly, so a sentence-initial İyi finds iyi and ILIK (“lukewarm”) never collapses onto İLİK (“marrow”).
View reference data🇺🇦Ukrainian → English
Українська
Fully supported — read, tap-to-define, mine vocabulary, and practice frequency-banded cloze in Ukrainian, as its own language rather than an approximation of Russian. Ukrainian spelling treats the apostrophe as a letter (п'ять, м'ясо, з'їзд), so the reader keeps those words whole and tappable instead of splitting them in half, and a lookup finds the entry whichever apostrophe your source typed. The alphabet includes ґ, є, і and ї, and definitions are Ukrainian ones — так is “yes” here, not the Russian “like that”.
View reference data🏛️Koine Greek → English
Κοινή
Fully supported — read, tap-to-define, mine vocabulary, and practice frequency-banded cloze in polytonic Koine. Built for the Greek New Testament: frequency ranks come from the GNT itself (the ~300 most frequent lemmas cover most of the running text), cloze sentences are verse-aligned with their references kept, lookups forgive accent variance (τὸν finds τόν) and typed practice accepts unaccented answers. No synthesized audio on principle: Koine pronunciation is reconstructed and disputed, so the speaker stays silent rather than guessing.
