关于此扩展
Open any article in the language you're learning and this extension tells you
one thing: what share of it you already know.
Reading works when you understand almost everything — around 98% of the words
— because that's when you can infer a new word from context instead of
stopping to look it up. Below about 95% you're decoding, not reading, and
that's the difference between a book you finish and one you abandon on page
four. The problem is you can't tell which side of that line a page falls on by
looking at it. So count it.
HOW IT WORKS
Click the icon on any page. The extension reads the article text, measures it
against the vocabulary band you've set, and shows you:
• The percentage of the page you already know
• Whether it's comfortable, a stretch, or too hard as it is
• The words that are new to you
• Which frequency band the page is actually written for, so you can see how
far off it is
If it's too hard, "Read it at my level" opens Beeblio, which fetches the same
article and can rewrite it at your level while keeping the meaning.
WHY FREQUENCY BANDS
Words follow a steep curve: a small set does most of the work. The 1,500 most
common Spanish words cover roughly 80% of ordinary text; the next ten thousand
buy you far less. Learning them in frequency order means the next word you
learn is the most useful one left. The bands here — 300, 800, 1,500, 3,000,
5,000, 8,000, 12,000 — are that curve, and they're what the measurement is
against.
LANGUAGES
Spanish, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Dutch, Polish
and Turkish.
SET YOUR LEVEL ONCE
Pick the language you're learning and your band. If you don't know your band,
there's a free two-minute test at beebl.io — 24 words, one at a time, know it
or not yet.
PRIVACY
The extension sends the text of a page to Beeblio's servers to measure it,
and only when you click the icon. It does not run on pages you haven't asked
it to, it has no access to your browsing history, it asks for no account, and
it sets no tracking cookies. Your language and band are stored in your browser
profile. Full policy: https://beebl.io/privacy
