Your 3 steps
Decode
You read the foreign text with a word-by-word gloss underneath — every word makes sense instantly, no dictionary needed.
Active listening
You hear the language while reading along — your brain links sound and meaning and locks in the pronunciation.
Passive listening
The lesson plays quietly in the background — while tidying up, driving or falling asleep. Your ears get used to the sound of the language.
Grammar on the side
No tables, no rules to memorize: the structure of the language settles in through listening — just like your native language.

Questions that actually matter
Does “learning on the side” really work?
For repetition: yes. You decode first and listen actively — then the lesson keeps running passively, no concentration needed.
And the grammar? Where does it come from?
From the model itself: reading texts with a full gloss shows you the structure over and over — your brain builds grammar rules from patterns, just like it did with your native language.
Which languages are there — and what's next?
The starting course is English. Spanish and Portuguese as target languages are in production.
Who does the method come from?
The core idea — decoding texts word by word instead of cramming vocabulary — draws on approaches by Vera F. Birkenbihl and modern listening-based methods. I reworked and tightened it so it fits into 25 minutes a day.
Your language won't wait for the perfect moment.
