Bilingual Study
Import paired articles in two languages for side-by-side study.
~2 minutesImport your primary article
On the dashboard, drop your EPUB file on Open something to read and comment on — or use Paste text if you have the article text itself. The app detects the article language automatically.
Add the paired language
After detection, you'll see a prompt: "Do you also have the Spanish version?" (or English, depending on what you imported first). Drop the second EPUB to pair them.
The app matches paragraphs between both versions. If all paragraphs match, you'll see a green "Paired" confirmation. If some don't match, unpaired paragraphs show only the primary language.
Use the language toggle
In the paragraph workspace, use the EN / ES toggle in the header to switch the paragraph preview between languages. This helps you study the article in both languages and prepare comments in either one.
You can also write your comment in your primary language and add a translation using the + ES button below the comment textarea.
Tips
- Same article, both languages — for the best pairing, import the same article in both languages, from the same issue or edition.
- Library auto-pairs — if you've already imported both versions, browsing either one from the Library will automatically show the bilingual toggle.
- Comment in any language — your comment language is independent of the article language. Write in whichever language you'll speak in.
