Learn a language from YouTube videos

YouTube is the largest library of unscripted speech in every language, which makes it the best listening practice available, and the hardest to convert into progress. Paste a link or capture the page with the extension, and Moreno turns the captions into a study set built from that exact video.

How to capture YouTube with Moreno

  1. 1

    Copy a YouTube URL, or open the video with the Moreno extension installed.

  2. 2

    Add it to Moreno from the Add Content page.

  3. 3

    Moreno reads the captions and analyses them with AI.

  4. 4

    Vocabulary, expressions and grammar land in your library, tagged by source.

  5. 5

    Practise with quizzes, listen-and-spell drills and writing exercises.

What Moreno pulls out

  • High-frequency vocabulary specific to the creator you follow
  • Colloquial expressions that textbooks omit
  • Pronunciation practice using the original audio
  • Topic vocabulary you can filter and study as a set

Getting more out of it

  • Follow two or three creators consistently. Repeated vocabulary compounds quickly.
  • Prefer videos with accurate captions over auto-generated ones when possible.
  • Short videos beat long ones: a 10-minute video produces a reviewable batch.
