Diglot Weave
Mix a little of the new language into text you already understand. Raise the mix as you grow — a classroom idea from Burling’s diglot-weave tradition, adapted for modern feeds.
Still in development · Coming soon

Product preview
A look at the Android MVP.
Real screens from the build in progress — home, personalize, and diglot weave on Instagram and the news. Features and polish still evolving.
Research backbone
Built on how people actually acquire language.
ScrollCha is not another flashcard treadmill. It follows learning science that favors comprehensible, low-stress exposure in real reading.
Just beyond your level
Acquisition thrives when input is mostly known with a light stretch — Krashen’s i+1 idea. ScrollCha keeps weave density in that band so reading stays clear, not overwhelming.
Comfortable coverage
Comfortable reading needs most words already familiar. We cap how much we weave so the page still feels readable while new vocabulary sneaks in.
Low-pressure practice
Anxiety blocks learning. ScrollCha is solo, pause-triggered, and on your terms — no partner judgment, no forced drills mid-scroll.
Spaced, natural exposure
Words return as you keep scrolling the content you care about. Repeated, meaningful encounters beat one-off vocabulary lists.
Real text, real life
Authentic posts and articles beat fake textbook dialogues. You practice the language where you’ll actually use it — inside everyday digital life.
Why ScrollCha
Drills teach. Feeds don’t — until now.
People open a language app for practice, then Instagram for real life. Those worlds never meet. Fluency stalls. ScrollCha closes the gap.
