Browser Extension · Chrome & Firefox

LingQ vocabulary, highlighted on any page.

Web Reader for LingQ reads your LingQ word statuses into whatever page you're on. Tap a word, see a translation, update its status, keep reading. No import, no separate library, no account beyond the LingQ one you already have.

Add to Chrome Add to Firefox

Free. Requires a LingQ account and API key.

How it works

Three steps, on top of pages you're already reading.

Connect your LingQ account

Add your LingQ API key once. The Extension downloads your vocabulary and caches it in your browser.

Read anywhere on the web

Every page you visit gets highlighted against your known and unknown words, the same status system as your LingQ account.

Tap a word to update it

See a translation, change its status, and the change syncs back to LingQ. No separate import step.
