Description

Description

Clozemaster is a language learning game focused on building vocabulary through mass exposure to sentences. The core mechanic involves filling in a missing word (a "cloze") in a sentence. It uses a spaced repetition system to re-test words and features a heavily gamified interface with points and leaderboards. Sourced from a large corpus of translated sentences, it's an excellent tool for intermediate learners to move beyond basic vocabulary and see words used in a wide variety of contexts, which can implicitly reinforce grammar.

HiNative functions as a global Q&A forum connecting language learners with native speakers. Instead of a structured course, it allows you to ask specific questions about vocabulary, sentence structure, pronunciation, and cultural nuances. Users can get quick corrections on their writing or upload audio to ask for pronunciation feedback. It is an invaluable utility for clarifying doubts and getting authentic input, but it is a supplement for learning, not a standalone course.
