The HypLern project has been creating word-for-word translated language material since 2006. The aim of our project is to allow students to start reading the language of their choice immediately, and expand their vocabulary fast.
Our books and website are based on three elements to expand your mastery of the language fast and easy. A lot of vocabulary in original non-artificial stories, immediate availability of meaning in immersive interlinear format, and memorizing efficiency through repetition and association by story. Use the following method to attain new vocabulary fast:
1. Read the stories and re-read them until you know most of the words.
This is a fast process because there's no lookup time with the unique word-for-word literal plus idiomatic translations, and most words or their root forms occur more than once, so you'll start recognizing them already after the first read. Even for those that think looking up in a dictionary will make you memorize faster: if looking at (yes, not up) our word-for-word translation takes two seconds and 15 lookups to memorize, and looking up a word in a dictionary takes on average 30 seconds and 5 lookups to memorize, it still means our method is 5 times faster.
2. Focus on the remaining words that you still don't know by marking them in the text.
Rereading only the paragraphs with difficult words will help you memorize them both by repetition and by association. Where a google or dictionary translation might be missing or misplaced, the manually added literal word-for-word translation is in context and correct conjugation. This means that on top of being much faster, you're learning much more efficiently than with any other method.
