You're already exposed to a second language.Turn that exposure into automatic recall.
LinkVocab helps you learn words in real sentence context and review them on a structured schedule—so they become usable.
Words stick because of the context you meet them in.
Exposure can compound — but only if it's structured.
You encounter them in real situations —
articles, conversations, meetings, movies.
That exposure is valuable.
But when you save only the word,
the context that made it meaningful disappears.
Without context, retention weakens.
Learn words the way you meet them
Keep the context. Train real recall. Let exposure turn into usable vocabulary.

Capture it in context
Save the word with the real sentence you met it in.
Recall it in context
Practice with gap-fill sentences so you train usage, not recognition.
Reinforce and expand
Words return over time. As recall strengthens, you add natural phrases and collocations.

Why structure works.
Memory strengthens through retrieval — not recognition.
Grounded in cognitive science research.
Meaningful context strengthens encoding.
Active retrieval strengthens memory traces.
Spaced exposure across contexts builds transfer.
LinkVocab is designed around these principles.
Why I built LinkVocab
I built LinkVocab because I personally struggled with the B2 plateau.
At that stage you can understand almost everything you read or hear, but when you want to use the word yourself — it often isn't there.
Exposure wasn't the problem. Recall was.
I started building a small system for myself to capture vocabulary from real sentences and review it over time.
LinkVocab is a continuation of that system.
If it helps other learners move from exposure to recall, then the project is doing its job.
Built for learners who use language daily.
You read real content.
You encounter valuable words every day.
You do not need streaks.
You need structure.
LinkVocab is still evolving. Many improvements come directly from learners using the tool.
Quiet progress. Long-term growth.
No streaks.
No gamification.
Just structure.
01
Use it with any language.
Bring your own content — books, podcasts, articles.
02
Context-first.
Every word stays anchored to the sentence that made it meaningful.
03
Start free.
No credit card. No streak pressure. Just lasting vocabulary.
Why there is a Supporter plan
LinkVocab is free to use. You can build and review unlimited vocabulary without paying.
The Supporter plan adds deeper AI-driven expansion, phrase and collocation growth, and multi-device sync.
Running AI models, cloud sync, and infrastructure has real costs. The Supporter plan helps keep the system stable and continuously improving.
The goal is not to restrict learning, but to make long-term development sustainable.
Many improvements come directly from learners using the system.

Common questions
Everything you need to know about how LinkVocab works.
Flashcards store isolated words for recognition. LinkVocab uses contextual vocabulary learning and spaced repetition to build structured depth.
Each word stays anchored to its original sentence, is trained through retrieval practice at the right time, and expands into collocations and related forms.
The goal is not recognition — but usable vocabulary you can apply in real situations.
Yes. You add the words and phrases you encounter in real life — from articles, meetings, books, or conversations. The system then structures and develops them over time using spaced repetition and contextual recall.
Yes. LinkVocab is language-agnostic. You can use it with any language you are learning. The system strengthens memory structure and vocabulary retention rather than following a fixed curriculum.
Yes. LinkVocab is built around established principles such as retrieval practice, spaced repetition, contextual learning, and vocabulary depth development.
These principles are widely supported in cognitive science and second language acquisition research.
Most users spend 5–15 minutes per day reviewing vocabulary. The system is designed for consistent, long-term vocabulary retention rather than intensive cramming. Progress compounds quietly over time.
No. There are no streak mechanics. The focus is structured retention through retrieval practice — not daily pressure.
Yes. You can start using the core vocabulary learning system for free. No credit card required.
LinkVocab is built by Rafal a language learner and software engineer.
The project started as a personal system to overcome the B2 vocabulary plateau.
This is something I'm exploring.
Many language creators produce great example sentences. The long-term idea is to allow learners to review vocabulary from lessons they watch online.
For now the focus is on building a solid learning system first.
