Read your first book in Welsh.
Short stories in Welsh that stay inside the words you know, with the meaning of any word a tap away and audio to read along to.
The shortest path to reading Welsh.
Vocabulary drills only take you so far. To learn to read Welsh you have to read Welsh, and that's where most learners stall. Native books are a wall. Children's books are written for children. Graded readers are dull.
ReadBilingual gives you short Welshstories pitched at your level, set from the words you've learned or from a one-minute placement quiz. Tap any word to see what it means in that sentence. Press play to hear the story read aloud.
