What it does

Dictoterix is the first online learning service built end-to-end around the bilingual-dichotic method: your native language in one ear, the language you're learning in the other, at the same moment. Most apps teach “words”. The question that matters is which words — so every level in Dictoterix is measured against a reference inventory of what an A1–C1 learner actually needs. No card. No trial clock. It's just free.

One voice in each ear — the way your brain is built to take in a language. Every sentence composed live from the words you're ready to keep. Free, no paywall.

Dictoterix plays your language in one ear and the one you're learning in the other — sent to the ear wired most directly to your brain's language centers. Every sentence is composed live from the words you're ready to keep, and lets the rest wash through. Dictoterix is the first online learning service built end-to-end around the bilingual-dichotic method: your native language in one ear, the language you're learning in the other, at the same moment. It isn't a trick of the format. Your right ear connects most directly to the language centers of your brain — the right-ear advantage, one of the most replicated findings in the neuroscience of hearing. Dictoterix sends every new phrase to that…from dictoterix.com
