Better English · Out-read the algorithm.
Word lists are easy to forget. Words you meet inside a good story come with a memory attached. Read Rebel lets you tap any word for its meaning, keeps it with the sentence you found it in, has you use it in a sentence of your own, and brings it back as a spaced-repetition flashcard.
Free to start, no account needed. 50 flashcards free forever, unlimited with Plus. Every new reader gets 7 days of Rebel Plus free, no card. English, Hindi or both — your call.
Sound familiar?
“Word list ratta maarta hoon, do din mein bhool jaata hoon.”
I cram word lists and forget them in two days.
Every word you save keeps the sentence you found it in, and spaced-repetition flashcards bring it back on a schedule — hard words sooner, easy ones later.
“Meaning pata hai, par bolte waqt word yaad hi nahi aata.”
I know the meaning, but the word never comes when I speak.
Knowing a word and using it are different skills. “Use it in your own sentence” practice turns a word you recognise into one you can actually say and write.
“English books shuru karta hoon, 20 page baad chhod deta hoon.”
I start English books and quit after 20 pages.
A 2-minute diagnosis matches you with one book at your level, and small daily sessions keep you going. Read-aloud helps on hard pages.
How it works
Your coach picks one book from a curated English and Hindi list — from Word Power Made Easy to short stories like Malgudi Days — or open your own EPUB or PDF.
See the meaning without leaving the page, and save it with the exact sentence you found it in. “Explain” any name or idea with a Wikipedia summary.
Write one sentence with your new word. You get friendly, instant tips (does it use the word, is it long enough, capital letter, full stop). Works offline.
Spaced-repetition flashcards: Again, Hard, Good or Easy. Words you know come back less often; tricky ones come back sooner.
What's inside
Look it up, keep it
Double-click (or double-tap) any word in your book for its definition. Save it and Read Rebel keeps the sentence too, because context is what makes a word memorable.
Flashcards + sentence practice
Your saved words become spaced-repetition flashcards. Then “use it in your own sentence” practice nudges you to put each word to work — the step most vocab apps skip.
Listen & read along
Read-aloud highlights each sentence and word as it’s spoken, from 0.5× to 3×. Slow it down on tricky passages, read along, and let the rhythm of well-written English sink in.
Hinglish-friendly
Pick English, Hindi or both in the diagnosis. Bilingual readers get playful Hinglish nudges (“Reel dekh li, ab real padh lo 😄”), and anyone can switch to calm, joke-free reminders.
