Migaku

Migaku is a Chrome extension designed to help you learn languages through real, native content. Instead of relying only on textbooks and isolated vocabulary drills, it turns what you already watch and read into learning materials you can study right away.

Using Migaku, you can start by learning the most common words and grammar patterns that power a large share of everyday language. Then, you can turn shows and videos into your own lessons with one-click flashcards from Netflix, YouTube, and the web. When you view content, you can click words in websites and subtitles to get definitions, pronunciations, images, and ChatGPT-generated explanations in context.

Migaku also focuses on building retention. Your flashcards include the word plus its context sentence, audio, screenshot, definition, and AI explanation, and you review them at regular intervals using built-in spaced repetition. The extension further helps you choose what to study next by tracking the words you’ve learned and generating a comprehension score for the content you visit.

It’s for beginners who want a clearer on-ramp to immersion as well as intermediate and advanced learners who want deeper lookups, more efficient sentence mining, and customizable learning features. Start free with a 10-day trial and no credit card required.
