Comprehensible input for Vietnamese

What is comprehensible input?

The idea of comprehensible input is a transformative approach to language learning, introduced by linguist Stephen Krashen. This concept suggests that the optimal progress in language learning occurs when individuals engage with language material that is just above their existing level of competence, yet still within their grasp of understanding.

Essentially, it's about delivering learning content that pushes learners slightly out of their comfort zone, thereby fostering advancement without causing discouragement.

The benefits of comprehensible input

Here's what you can expect:

  • Reduced anxiety: When you understand most of the language you are exposed to, you feel more confident and less anxious.
  • Increased efficiency: The focus is on understanding rather than memorization, resulting in faster progress.

Filter content based on your vocabulary level

The app saves the words you already know automatically. It then highlights the words you don't know. You can filter the content based on the percentage of the words you know.

Filter content based on your interests

It's easier to read the content about something you already know a little about. Lingo Champion lets you filter the content based on your interests.

See the words in context

The key to picking up new words is seeing them in context. Although you can also use flashcards for further practice, the main way of acquiring any language works through reading and listening actual sentence not separate words or fictional situations.

See the translations in context

Our AI-powered translation engine translates the words in context. You can see the translations of the words in the context of the sentence. This means translations are more accurate and the AI will further explain the words you don't know.

After a year of learning Spanish with Duolingo, I felt stuck. Theoretically, I was supposed to be at a B1 level—but I couldn't read or listen to anything practical. After less than three months of using Lingo Champion, I was finally able to read news articles without any problems. And in the process, I learned so much about the culture of Spanish-speaking countries.
