The Spanish library

La casa en la colina

The Spanish library is live, built on the same graded-ladder method as our Georgian catalog. The first book is free — no card, no account needed to start reading.

How it works

Reading is the method.

No drills, no streak guilt, no cartoon owl. You read real stories, and the app quietly removes everything that used to make that hard.

01

Tap any word

An instant gloss with romanization for every script — no dictionary detour, no losing your place in the story.

Ana vive en una casa pequeña.vive — lives
02

Tap a sentence

See the full translation only when you want it. Understanding stays a choice, not a crutch.

Ana vive en una casa pequeña.“Ana lives in a small house.”
03

Listen along

Every catalog book is also an audiobook. Native narration highlights each word as it's spoken — karaoke for reading.

Read-along audio

Every book is also an audiobook.

  • Native-quality narration for every catalog book, chapter by chapter — included, not an add-on.
  • Karaoke highlighting. The word being spoken lights up as you read, so your ear and eye learn together.
  • Your pace. Slow it to 0.5× while you're starting out, push past 1× when you're flying. Tap any sentence to replay it.
  • Offline too. Download the audio with the book and listen anywhere.

Questions

Fair questions, straight answers.

Is Spanish available now?

Yes — the Spanish graded ladder is live in the app, and the first book is free.

What level do the stories cover?

The ladder starts at absolute-beginner A1 and climbs to upper-intermediate B2, one small step per chapter.

Is it free?

The first book in every language is completely free — no account, no card. A Pro subscription later unlocks the rest of each library.

How is this different from flashcards?

Flashcards teach words in isolation; stories teach them in context, with grammar and collocations attached. ReadNative tracks your vocabulary automatically while you read, so you get the measurable progress of an SRS without the grind. And if you love Anki, every book exports a ready-made deck.

Also on ReadNative

One subscription, every language.

Every language gets the same treatment: a graded ladder of real books, tap-to-translate, audio narration and vocabulary tracking.
