Learn English as you type Chinese. Keysake is a free macOS input method that shows English alongside your Chinese. Save words, phrases, or full sentences from what you want to say. Japanese, Korean, and more languages are coming soon.
This feels much more practical than traditional vocabulary apps. Seeing English alongside what you’re already trying to say could make new words stick much more
Congrats @rick_fan could this also work for learning other languages in the future?
Would love an option in the future to toggle between British and American English phrasing.
Could this make learning English feel more natural than using a traditional language app?
Curious if there are plans for a Windows version eventually but it looks incredibly slick for Mac users.
This way of displaying English is also quite clever. Seeing the natural structure of sentences as you type can help new expressions sink in better without feeling like a separate lesson.
I like the idea of learning from the very sentences you were already planning to type. It seems much more practical than interrupting your workflow just to learn vocabulary.
Congrats on the launch! This looks really interesting and useful. Wishing you a great launch day! 🚀
Congrats! I type in Chinese all day, so being able to learn while typing is such a smart touch.
I really like the idea of showing natural English while typing Chinese. It makes learning feel simple and easy to fit into your daily routine.
I like that it doesn’t feel like another traditional language learning app
Congrats on launch! does Keysake adapt to each person’s current English level?
congrats @rick_fan can it recognize context and suggest phrases that actually fit the conversation?
Saving full sentences seems more useful than saving isolated words for me. Are saved sentences searchable later?
This could make learning English feel much less like studying and more like a daily habit. Congrats on launch @rick_fan

I can see this being especially useful for people who understand English but struggle to quickly find the right words when writing. Nice concept!
